Hello! It’s time for some Mid Month Inspiration from A Colorful Life Designs. Each month, a special stencil is released on the 15th, and is on sale for one week. This month, the stencil is called Mixed Patterns, and it’s 6″ x 9.” I was very inspired by my friend Kat, who made THIS precious card with the stencil.

I love how Kat saw spider webs in the design, so I made mine with the spider from Day 5 of Spellbinders Craftoween box from last year. I die cut this dapper fella from black, white, and grey cardstock, and used some purple for his top hat. I did a bit of ink blending on his body to make him appear more round.

For my stenciled panel, I inked it with Grape Crush and Juniper Mist Inks from Catherine Pooler. I added a sentiment from Ellen Hutson that I stamped with Nocturne VersaFine Clair Ink onto grey cardstock. I added some Opaque Iridescent Dark Purple Card Bling from A Colorful Life Designs, and inked my white card base with Queen for a Day Ink from Catherine Pooler.

I love being inspired by my friends. I don’t think I would have thought of using this spider if it wasn’t for Kat’s card. I hope you pick up the Mid Month Inspiration Stencil while it’s on sale.
