Live, Love, Life

Don't know if you saw this TCW stencil being used over on the eclecticpaperie blog but it is gorgeous!!!  I couldn't wait to get the smaller version (6x6) and create some plaques to give as presents.

The wood plaques I picked up at Michaels in the unfinished wood department.  They were stamped with lots of stamps so I didn't keep track...sorry!  All ink was archival.

I used distress inks on the stencil...they are so blendable and super to work with.  The color palette is amazing...they are my 'go to' inks for almost every project.  It took very little time to color the stencil but looks like I spent hours because of the multiple shades of each color used to create depth.  The mats are Bazzill card stocks.
