STAMPlorations June Stencil Challenge - Mid Month Reminder

Welcome back - it's time for the STAMPlorations June Stencil Challenge Mid Month Reminder. There is still plenty of time to play with us.

Here is my sample:

I used the ARTplorations Peony Number Two stencil and placed it on a panel of white card stock. I blended several shades of pink dye ink to create some shadows. After removing the stencil I used some dark pink colored pencils to accentuate the shadows. I used STAMPlorations' CUTplorations Crazy Double Running Stitch Rectangle Nesting Dies to cut out the panel and matted that panel with black card stock and then adhered that to the card base.

Here are the rules to play in the stencil challenge:

• You must use a stencil or stencils (any brand) in your project(s) - if it isn't obvious that you used a stencil in your project, your entry may be deleted or will not be eligible to win.
• Non-STAMPlorations products in entries are OK.
• You can enter as many projects as you wish as long as they are in separate blog posts and that they are new and not created prior to the start of the current month's challenge.
• Your project photo must be posted in full in your blog post to be eligible to win and receive the corresponding prize. Please don't link up to our challenge if you're only showing a sneak peek of it (as is the case if you made it as a design team project for another company). In the same vein, please do not link up your project if it's solely to promote another company.
• You must display the challenge graphic in your post (if linking from your blog) and link back to the challenge post (not just the main blog) in order to be eligible to win (and receive the corresponding prize).

Thanks for coming by!
