Mornin' hens! I've had this idea in my head for the longest time and FINALLY decided to try it out. I bought the brick stencil with the idea of making a brick colored wall using embossing paste, and I'm thrilled with how it turned out. It's EXACTLY as I imagined it. Woot-woot!
I knew the girl from this older stamp set from BC Dzyns called, "and then I said" would be perfect for my wall. I just love that look on her face, and I imagined her saying something really sarcastic. {snort!} Ok, so I stamped the image, colored it with my Copics, and cut it out. Next, I masked off the top half of my card base and then applied the embossing paste over the stencil. Once the paste was dry, I taped the stencil back on top and used my distress inks to color the paste. Love it!! I then stamped the sentiment and made the speech bubble using the quotables die from Paper Smooches. I had to color the chipboard stickers (29) black and then adhered the image and speech bubble with some foam tape. Well, that's it for me today. I hope you have a great day and I'll see ya back in the hen house real soon. {{{hen hugs}}}
