Purple Bloom

Hi!

Today I am playing along with two challenges - Papertrey Ink's Make It Monday challenge #254 where Ashley shows us how to stencil using texture paste, and Simon Says Stamp's Wednesday challenge: Anything Goes.



I made a stencil using PTI's "Mighty Bloom" cover plate.  I used embossing paste and coloured it using a red re-inker and an Adirondack Alcohol Ink "Wild Plum".  Sentiment is PTI's "Keep It Simple: Birthday".  I ended up using too much water when I decided to lighten the color, and the ink bled a bit on a few of the petals : (  

Thanks for stopping by, and have a great weekend!

Betty
