World Cardmaking Day with Picket Fence Studios

 I have a bright birthday card to share today, using a stencil and a stamp from Picket Fence Studios. Make sure you read on - there's a giveaway! 

UPDATE - winners have been chosen from my blog and from Instagram! Congratulations, Mary L. Holshouser and Beverly Jordan! (both winners have been contacted).

I made this rainbow panel by adding alcohol inks over a stencil and leaving the stencil in place until the inks had dried. I learned this technique from Tim Holtz in one of the amazing live sessions he ran on Facebook earlier this year.

 

Today we are celebrating World Card Making Day and Erica, one of our design team members, nearing a major milestone of 10K followers on Instagram, with a combined Blog Hop / Insta Hop and giveaway!
Hop along the lineup, follow the design team and leave comments for your chance to win some fabulous prizes.
There is a grand prize from Picket Fence Studios, one $100 gift voucher, as well as smaller prizes on every stop of the hop. The grand prize winner will be drawn from comments left on all the stops, and each design team member will draw their individual winners respectively. I will have 2 prizes - one for the blog hop and one for the Instagram hop!
 
Rules for the Instagram hop:
1. Follow @pfstamps and me (@michelle_lupton), but don't unfollow once the giveaway is over. That's not cool. Let's stay friends!

  4. I thought you had added something over the alcohol ink to get that soft cloudy look, how cool that you get that just from leaving the stencil on it while it dries! Gorgeous! Thank you for hopping along with me to celebrate, I really appreciate it!
