Playing with Brushos

Hi there~

I have a card for three challenges, CAS Stencil ChallengePenny Black Saturday Challenge and Seize the Birthday.

I used Brusho's in green and red along with a Penny Black Stencil,  Promenade.  I checked out a few You Tube videos for some technical help.



I thought it might get really messy, but it turned out pretty well controlled within the stencil openings since I have re-positional spray glue on the backs of most of my stencils.

I finished the card by putting it on a black card base and added a birthday sentiment. I love the bold colors with the black.


    

Thanks so very much for stopping by.

This is gorgeous Cat! Your edges are so clean, and love the blends in the brushos. Great tip to use repositional spray to keep the stencil down too, bit tricky to do when there are lots of openings. Thankyou for playing along at CAS Stencil, Cathy x
