Happy Little Stampers Stencil Challenge – 2023 September Anything Goes


Hi Artsy Friends,

It’s time to play along with Happy Little Stampers Stencil Challenge again. The Challenge Theme is always Anything Goes.     

It’s super easy and all you need is kickstarting your creativity and share it with us. For Challenge Rules and other DTs’ inspiration artworks, please check out our Challenge Blog. Please join us for the fun. I can’t wait to see your beautiful artwork.

I’m in a mood to play something Mixed Media and I’m happy with what I came up with. Hope my card is eye-pleasing to you. Thanks for stopping by and have an artsy day. 

Card Details

1. I dug out a background panel from my stash. The background was a stencil (Altenew) print from a previously-made card.

2. Stamp my favorite sentiment background (Hero Arts) on background panel. 

3. Stamp several Mini Media Marks images (Tim Holtz) using (Prize Ribbon) Distress Oxide Ink on background panel.

4. Apply (Pine Needles) Distress Oxide Ink over stencil (The Crafters Workshop) on background panel.

5. Apply (Salty Ocean) Distress Oxide Ink on panel edges. Apply Metallic Silver Embossing Paste (Wendy Vecchi) on background panel.

6. Stamp butterfly and sentiment (Simon Says Stamp) in black.

7. Heat Emboss butterfly in silver (Altenew, Antique Silver) and die cut (Simon Says Stamp).

8. Assemble the card as shown.
