Monstera Layering Stencil

Hello Crafty Friends and Happy Tuesday!  Before I continue with sharing my Card of the Day, I wanted to remind everyone of the Blog Hop that is active until Midnight EST on 14 July so hop along for your chance to win some holiday themed prizes.  To find the hop, click HERE and you can also find the post in the sidebar to the right.  Hope to see you there!

My card today features the Erin Lee Creative Monstera Layering Stencil and the Good Vibes Layering Die.  I love the ease of layering stencils and stencils have come a long way from when I first started papercrafting, producing lovely layered inages.

I used 4 shades of Catherine Pooler green inks to create the background of this slimline card.  The layering stencil is very easy to line up and ink through.  After stenciling and allowing the ink to dry, I added additional interest with Dina Wakley Black and White Acrylic Gloss Spray splatters.

I inked a snippet of card with 2 shades of Pink Catherine Pooler ink to create an Ombre and die cut the sentiment.  I layered on a shadow of Vellum and adhered to the panel.  I didn't have the exact color of enamel dots so I dug out my old skool hand punch for the tiny circles, using glitter card.  

I matted with black card and adhered all on a card base of Neenah Solar White Classic Crest 110 lb card.  I love the Tropical feel of this card and I hope you do as well.

Until next time, Happy Crafting!
