I was rummaging through my stash of backgrounds and found a piece with some faux mother of pearl in blues and greens. I wanted to play along with CAS Stencil this month which is stencil over a coloured background.
I stamped the flowers directly on top of the stencilling and removed some of the colour with water and kitchen paper then watercoloured the flowers using watercoloured pencils.
I'm hoping my white frame makes this CAS enough for CAS Stencil 😓
I'm entering this for CAS Stencil

Absolutely beautiful Christine, as always! Love, love your colors!
Such a vibrant and creative card with great techniques and effects x.
This is so beautiful! I'm so glad you did thid right now. One of my DTs has stencilling for a theme soon and I had no idea how to do it. I am getting some great ideas from seeing yours. I just bought a few stencils. I didn't even own any. this should be an adventure!
Oh, my gosh, gorgeous! This looks like a stained glass window. I'm in awe!
Beautiful colours and layers - love the stenciling over the coloured background, and the flowers are so vibrant.
Gorgeous stenciled background, Christine for your beautiful stamped flowers. TFS your beauty with us at CAS Stencil Card Challenge my friend. See you on Wednesday night:-) Hugs, Nancy
Beautiful and so inspiring Christine and I thank you ever so much for your sweet comment which gave me inspiration again. I have so limited supplies while house sitting away from home and trying not to double up.xxx
I'm impressed that you could watercolor over a colored background. That is amazing! I'd never even think to try it. It's so colorful and cheerful. Your white framing works perfectly to create a CAS card!
Gorgeous card Christine. Love the colours of the background with the pretty blue stenciling over top. Your flowers really pop with those bright colours --- awesome! xx
Wonderful! I would never have thought to watercolour over a coloured BG let alone through a stencil... This is perfection!
Wonderful technique - love the vividness of the flowers (great idea removing some of the color first). Your stenciling and framing are awesome on this. Lovely card, Christine. Hugz
