Using Stencils ATC

The theme for 9ATC Group is Using Stencils. I decided to make a double stenciled background. First, colored the card stock yellow by applying the ink pad directly to the paper (dtp) and heat set. Then inked blue Distress ink onto the card stock through a stencil with a jumbo dauber and heat set.
Next, used another stencil and dabbed on a purple Distress ink with the jumbo dauber and heat set.
Finished by stamping a butterfly image with black Distress Ink, heat set, then added 3 small red rhinestones.
