CAS Stencil - March

Boo!  This is a hint to this month's CAS Stencil challenge.
There are a couple of videos on the challenge site to explain how to do this so please check them out.  I did mine a little differently and got a surprise.
The mixed media paper was inked up with Black Soot DOX and covered with the TH crackle stencil.  I wet my paper towel and pressed it onto the stencil.  When I lifted it off I saw that the pattern on the paper towel left an impression on my paper.  Not what I was going for but I love it!  The PTI frame was added along with a TH wildflower die cut.

Thanks for dropping by.
