Skellie Fest -Post #2

Hello Everyone!
Welcome to my second post for the Lost Coast Designs Skellie Fest and Skull Appreciation Event on the Lost Coast Portal to Creativity Blog-- check out the blog for all the details.
For today's project, I have stamped a winged skeleton from Carmen's Veranda Stamps and added some stenciled accents.

Materials List:

Stamp: Winged Skeleton from Carmen's Veranda

Ink:Blackberry Bliss Stampin Up; Milled Lavender and Seedless Preserves Distress

CS: Gray, rose, burgundy

Stencil: Mini Damask from Crafter's Workshop

Make It:

• Make a card base from burgundy CS
• Add a layer of rose CS
• On gray CS, stamp the winged skeleton with Blackberry ink-let ink dry

• Place stencil over stamped gray CS and add lavender ink with Tim Holtz application tool--move the stencil around as necessary to add the swirll elements
• Remove the stencil
• Distress edges with Seedless Preserves
• Add to card base

Note: I  picked a stencil that mimicked the flourish design in the stamp.
