STAMPlorations September Sketch Challenge - Guest Designer!


 I'm SUPER excited to be Guest Designer for STAMPlorations September Sketch Challenge!! 

I'm fairly new to using STAMPlorations products, but they are AMAZING and owner Shery Russ is one of the sweetest people ever - her customer service is absolutely superb!!  If you haven't seen Shery's gorgeous stamp and stencil designs...you've GOT to check out the blog and shop!


Now, on to this month's Sketch Challenge...
 


 

 I'm still learning a little about using stencils and playing with mixed media.  While not my forte, I was pretty happy with how this came out :) First, I sponged over the Weathered Wood stencil and embossed/stamped with stamps in the Mixed Media Grunge set.  Then I black embossed/watercolored the Helenium flower and fussy cut it.  I finished the card adding a sentiment from the new Fond Expressions 2 set.

Hope you'll join the challenge!!
