I love using stencils, so pulled out an old favorite: Altenew's Wonderful Wreath. I inked through the stencil, moved it and inked again using CN9 Sea Glass, Tidepool and Clover. I like the fresh, springy look of those colors. For the berries I used CN9 Blueberry. Gina K Friend Caps die has a font similar to most magnetic letters, so I die cut it twice for thicker letters and inked with the 3 greens. Not sure you can buy ombre magnetic letters, but wouldn't that be a good idea?! I used Nuvo Crystal Glaze on the berries and diecut letters.
The little word from Altenew's Floral Frame was stamped in Blueberry. The look was just too plain for me with so much white, but tiny splatters of green and blue took care of that! Our sponsor is Altenew and the winner also gets a chance to guest design with us for a future challenge. Check out the great inspiration from my teammates and our guest designer. Hope to see you in the gallery.
I'm entering SSS Monday and WAW.
