Majestic Teal and Gold

Wow AAA challenge cards made me put on my thinking cap for the latest challenge which was teal and gold colour combo. I had a few ideas but not sure if they would have been clean and simple enough. 

Then I had an aha moment and remembered a fun class with Simon Hurley from last year where I got to play with his Lunar Paste. At the time for the class I received a very cool half circle stencil which you inked colour through then flipped to make the whole circle and stenciled in the Lunar Paste. It looked amazing; last year's effort used his Clear Skies Lunar paste and you can check out that card HERE.

But I actually love my teal and gold combo today. The 2 colours just rock together. The next bit was easy as I was using a stencil I had to make it a birthday card to play along with AAA birthday card challenge.

I actually had a bigger stenciled piece to work with but I wanted to pop it up with my MFT die and even though I made a vellum peekaboo window to work out my placement it must have moved a bit in my Big Shot, so I had to use another piece which I just cut out with my guillotine and unfortunately the stenciling is not as "tidy" but it looks amazing IRL.
