STAMPlorations - Stencil Sunday

It's stencil Sunday time at STAMPlorations,

and this Sunday I'm feeling green - in a very positive way.

I made a pair of ATC's

I made a these using color powder, water and

Honeycomb Delight Reversed stencil

Buttercups and Butterflies stamp set

Buttercups and Butterflies coordinating dies

and then just doodled the edges.

There is still little time to link to the current 

Mixed media challenge at STAMPlorations:

By entering you'll have a change to win:

$15 gift certificate OR choice of any 

2 ARTplorations stencils to the winner

and choice of 1 ARTplorations stencil to the top picks.

The theme is always anything mixed media goes except a card 

and you must use at least one stencil (any brand) in your project.

Thanks for hopping here and 

I'll hope to see your MM art at challenge.

pieces of paper that I had clued napkin on. 

Then, using Square City -stencil

added some golden paste and on top of everything, some die cuts:

Smile Word Die and Coffee Cup Silhouette Die

cut out from the same paper than I used for background.

Simply Loving Style

I bought these fab new stamps from Sin City,

and I can see how many ways these stamps can 

be combined /used in future.
