Have you tried stencil stamping?

My second sample for the Stencil It challenge is a tag with stencil stamping.


Create your background. I used the wrinkle free technique with distress inks and then blended some antique linen in the gaps.
Using pumice stone DI I blended through the numbers stencil and then stamped through it as well.





I added some latticework and chevron framework die, a photo from the ephemera pack, a stamped nib and chit chat words.


The small pieces within the latticework framework were cut from different fabrics and textures, hessian, cork, felt and patterned paper.


Then some shabby ribbon and a tag label complete the look.


Have you entered the challenge yet? If you haven’t there is still plenty of time, so pop over to the Challenge post to check out the details.


Have fun.
