Hello crafty friends!It’s Ceal, here. Today I am sharing a fun technique using stencils. It’s called Double Stenciling or Double Trouble fitting for Halloween, right?

Skill Level: BeginnerTime: 30 Minutes

Directions:

Gather your supplies. You will need two stencils, a Halloween stamp set and a word die cut. You will also need two or three inks. I used one of the newest VersaFine Clair colors along with two of the original ones. A sticky mat, tape or something to hold your stencil in place would be useful as well.

Step 1:Lay your panel on a sicky mat of tape it down to hold it in place. Lay your first stencil on top and ink it up with VersaFine Clair Monarch.(As you can see, I don’t usually clean my stencils)

Step 2:Remove the first stencil and replace it with the second stencil. Ink it up with VersaFine Clair Verdant.

Step 3:Remove the second stencil and go over the entire panel with VersaFine Clair Lilac Bloom one of our gorgeous new colors.

Afterwards cut the panel down to 5 x 3 3/4

This background reminds me of that old wallpaper you would see in a haunted house.

Step 4:Stamp, color and fussy cut out the image and word die.

Finish the card by adding the panel to an A2 sized card base and adding the elements placed where you would like them.
