JUGS #282 , HLS and STB

The minute I saw the photo inspiration at Just Us Girls I knew I wanted to use the technique that Kristina Werner used here.


Using the extra large  dot stencil from SSS, I sponged on Peeled Paint Distress Ink on Neenah Desert Storm.  Then moving the stencil off to the side a little, I went around each dot with my Signo Uni-ball white pen.  The die cut sentiment from SSS is layered three times and then the smaller sentiment stamped underneath.  Now that I go back and look at Kristina's, maybe I should have moved the stencil more but I still like the way it turned out.

Happy Little Stampers CAS challenge for March is sponging, so I'm also entering this card there and at Seize the Birthday where the topping is masculine.

Thanks for stopping by.

Very cool technique, Bobby. The white outline gives the circles so much dimension. Thanks for playing along at Happy Little Stampers. xx

Fantastic dimension, Bobby ... seems I could just reach out and touch all those 3D-ish circles! So very cool! Anita :)

Brilliant take on the inspiration, Bobby! Love how the green and white pop off of the kraft and I actually prefer the dots being less offset on this card than they are on Kristina's.

What a fun technique! Love how the white sentiment just 'pops' off that background. Thanks so much for joining us at Seize the Birthday!
