Funky Fossil - "In The Spotlight Stencil with Stampers Anonymous Crazy Bird Stamp

Funky Fossil Designs is always bringing out new stencils to tempt me with.  I immediately fell for the "In the spotlight stencil" so it was a must for a card I needed to make for a young man that likes to do a bit of acting.

I used a black card and "Squeezed Lemonade" Distress Oxide Ink through the spotlight stencil.  When applying it had a slight yellow, but once dry it is more grey with a hint of yellow, which is fine for this purpose.

I used a bird from the Stampers Anonymous set called "Crazy Bird" stamped in Versafine Clair "Nocturne" ink into the middle of the spotlight and also on to a piece of white card.

I coloured the image on the white card using two shades of Distress Oxide Inks (Antique Linen and Rusty Hinge) and then fussy cut the shape and adehered over the stamped image on the spotlight area.

I used a Lawn Fawn stamp set called "Simply Sentiments" for the sentiment, stamped and embossed using Wow! embossing products.
