Maidenhair fern


There's still time to join in with the challenge at CAS Stencil this month where the challenge is to use Perfect Pearls or Pearl Ex.

Here I used a large stencil from Ryn Stencils. As it is such a huge stencil I used just part of it. I stamped through the stencil with Versamark Ink and the after removing the stencil added Perfect Pearls in two shades of green... Interference Green and Green Patina, using a soft brush. After buffing away all the excess powder I set the image by wafting the card through a mist of water, not spraying directly onto the card. As I wanted to keep some 'white space' in the card, I added the sentiment (Clearly Besotted) over part of the image and dusted the fronds with a few minuscule gems!

It was a real delight to be Guest Designer this month, as I simply love the challenges at CAS 'Central'!
