Hi Crafty Meraki friends....it's Michelle back with you today sharing 2 cards using my absolute favourite technique using stencils! I decided to use the new and fabulous Lucky Lanterns Stencil for this. This is such an easy and really technique, that you really only need a stencil and pigment powders for. Let's get started, shall we!
Start by cutting a piece of watercolour paper to 6x6 or just slightly larger, you want it to at least be the size of the stencil. Spray the back of the stencil really well with temporary spray adhesize and adhere the stencil to the watercolour paper. Pick out a colour palette of pigment powders that go nicely together and won¨t turn muddy. I used Lindy's Gang Magicals, but can't remember what colours I used...I just picked a bunch that go well together. Sprinkle the powders evenly over the stencil, trying to get more over the design than on the negative space on it. Do not add too much, as they will spread.
Spray the stencil to activate the powderts, but do not drench the stencil, as you don't want water seeping under the stencil design. After about 5-10 secs, dab and wipe off the excess water with a paper towel. Remove the stencil and set the paper aside to dry. Be careful at first as the powders will still be wet.
I aczually didn't wipe off the excess water and powders from the stencil right away, as I didn't want to waste all of that colour. So without disturbing the stencil at all, I cut another piece of watercolour paper and placed the paper on top of the stencil. I pressed the paper into the water and pigment powders, being sure to get enough contact with it all, that they transfer well to the watercolour paper. I set that aside and allowed it to fully dry.
Once my 2 backgrounds were dry, I trimmed both to 4x5.25" and adhered to A2 cardbases. For the sentiments I diecut the Hi Stanalone Die from a dark cardstock and heat embossed it using Ebony Embossing Powder from WOW! Embossing. The shadow layer under the Hi was cut from vellum, as I didn't want too mich of these backgrounds to be covered. Add the diecut Hi's ot the backgrounds.
This is such a fun, easy and super cool technique to use with your stencils. I truly will never get tired of this, as the colour combinations are endless and it is so fun experimenting with all the different stenci designs. some are more successful than others....it's all trial and error. This technique is one that I rely on time and time again, when i want to showcase how gorgeous a stencil design is.
Thank you so much for joining me on the blog today. I hope that I have helped to inspire you in some way. I hope you all get some time to sit down and craft today and I wish you all the most wonderful and crafty day! Until next time, Michelle :)

Hello everyone! I am overjoyed to share my husband’s incredible journey! Two years ago, he was diagnosed with ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis) at Patton State Hospital in California. The news was shocking, and the doctors informed us that there was no known cure. They provided us with medications to manage the symptoms, but after a year and two months, things started to worsen, and we were desperate for an alternative solution.
Just last month, I stumbled upon an amazing article about a herbal healing home in Africa that creates and sells incredible herbal remedies for all kinds of diseases, including ALS! I was so hopeful and decided to reach out to the herbal doctor via email to buy the ALS herbal remedy. To our excitement, we received the remedy in just six days!
My husband began using the herbal remedy right away. He diligently drank the ALS herb tea prepared by Doc. Yare three times a day for three weeks, along with the healing oil for two weeks. And guess what? It worked wonders! He is completely cured! We’re bursting with joy and have been spreading the word far and wide!
If you or anyone you know is still grappling with ALS/MND, I wholeheartedly encourage you to reach out to Doc. Yare! His knowledge of God’s life-saving herbs is truly remarkable – he is indeed a Godsend! You can contact him at: dryareherbalcurehome@gmail.com, or give him a call or WhatsApp message at: +2348164653711.
Feel free to reach out to me for more information at gleidyzcarlos@yahoo.com! Let’s spread hope and healing together!

In Dec, 2021, I invested the sum of 19.78 BTC with a fake blockchain impostor I met online, all the money I had saved up since 2014 got stolen just within a Month, my whole life almost crumbled, to crown it all my FICO score was so bad that I couldn’t even afford securing a loan to help my kids, but everything became better after I joined a forum online where I met people testifying about, a hacker who has been helping thousands of people all over the world. I decided to reach out to him via the following contact shared on the platform // jamesmckaywizard at gmail dot com or WhatsApp +31622647750., they responded and requested for all necessary information needed to aid my JOB, to my greatest surprise my bitcoin was recovered and my credit report fixed, FICO score was boosted to 783 across all 3-credit bureau’s, all negative items cleared just within 8 days. I can’t stop expressing my profound gratitude to this great team of hackers, I strongly recommend them to anyone in need.jamesmckaywizard at gmail dot com or WhatsApp +316** 5744// 6248..

It’s been 9 years since i have been working here in the United State as a Nurse, I always like using Instagram to while away time for myself and I came in contact with a guy called Qin on Instagram he’s Asian american, the guy was really awesome and he told me he was into broker trading that I could invest little with $5,000 and within a year i will have enough to buy myself a home and a hospital, so i decided to invest but after 8 months I tried to withdraw and i was asked for more and all this while he encouraged me to keep investing and i had already invested 206k USD with him on his broker platform and we started dating so that really makes me confident in him but it was too late to know I have been scammed after he successfully reap me and put me in a debt of $459k. The night I was to end it all I came across an article online about jamesmckaywizard on how him and his team have been helping people like myself who have been a victim of scam or online blackmail, i didn’t hesitate but took my time to ask about him from those people testifying about him. After which I contacted them firstly, they talked to me and i was calm and he asked me about all the transaction details which i gave them’ in less than 48hrs my hope to life was fully restored back i got all the money and interest which i invested and also Mr. Qin was traced and arrested. I strongly recommend them to anyone in need, this is the right platform for you, you can reach out to them on // jamesmckaywizard at gmail dot com or WhatsApp +316_ 5744_6248.
