Do you ever purchase a crafty supply and not immediately use it? :) Please tell me I am not alone. After purchasing a package of Ken Oliver's Color Burst powders ages ago (maybe two or three years even), I finally got around to using them. What fun! I got several of my stencils out and experimented using Color Burst with them. After taping a stencil to heavy watercolor paper, I sprinkled Color Burst lightly over the stencil. Next I lightly spritzed it with water and then carefully removed the stencil. I love the results! The Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge for this week is "No Stamps." I put this card together with that challenge in mind. The leaves are stenciled (stencil by Ranger/Dylusions) with Color Burst (Carribean Brights) and the die cut sentiment is cut from green fun foam. I found the perfect patterned paper in one of my older DCWV paper stacks as the card base. I adhered a few green sequins and tied green hemp twine bows for the finishing touch. Thanks Simon Says for making me finally use my Ken Oliver Color Burst. :) I'm linking this card at:

Your stencilling has worked really well and I know because I've had a couple of disasters when trying to use Brushos with stencils :-( Brilliant result and a lovely card.

You are definitely not alone when it comes to buying products, then forgetting them, or forgetting why you bought them. However, I have never heard of color bursts before. Having said that, I love the way you treated them, because you got some fantastic mottled colors from that stencil you used. It's a super card and a great entry for this current theme at Try it on Tuesday.
ReplyDeleteFantastic results using the powders, its a wonderful card design as well. Thank you for joining us at Try it on Tuesdays.
