Partial-Stenciling with an Angle

Hello friends!

I am popping in with a simple stenciled card.
Today's card was created along with all the Altenew Stencil Release.
This card is also part of the Altenew Intagram Blog hop

I don't know about you, but I crave for white space when I design a card! In this case, I know that I want to do a partial-stenciling. There are many ways of using this approach.
 I decided to tilt the stencil in an angle and cover the bottom part with scratch paper.

I loved striking colors and contrast. When in doubt with color combo, I highly suggest using mini Ink Cube combos like Misty Morning Ink Cube Set (alternatives: Gold Fish and Cerulean Skies)
I did all the ink-blending without the Life-Changing Blender Brush.  I think I did just fine with mini round ink applicator.

I added the lovely image from "Ornate Foliage" for my focal point. I embellished the card with silver strings and enamel dots.

By the way, if you follow me on Instagram, you can see my IG Story and you can see how I made the DIY Ink-Blender with a toothbrush.
