Stencil class - Day 1 - part 6

Last, but not least, another version of masking & layering.  This time I had to really move the stencil around as well as flip it over to make this work like I wanted.  I'm torn...does this look more like a basket weave or a snake skin?  And yet it's just diamonds. 

Ingredients:  Studio 490 stencil (Diamonds Are A Girl's Best Friend), distress ink, Styled Labels Sizzix die, Tim Holtz stamp from 'Nature's Moments', Jet Black Archival Ink, white and black card stock
