Stencil back grounds



I love to make my own back grounds and stencils are a great way to do them. Just a few daubers and some ink pads. I used the Tim Holtz Oxides they are great for blending.

I have stamped another Crazy cat and then stamped the little fish bone all the way round to make an edge and I tried some brown Spectrum Noir Illustrator pens to shade and I think I have done well I am getting used to shading but still have a long way to go.

I just love this cat from the Dylusions set called Cat among the Pigeons. I have used my water colour card stock and my Spectrum noir sparkle pens these colours are from the Coastal Cottage I did a colour wash background the picture doesn't show the sparkle as well as if seen in real time.
