Papertrey Ink Challenge # 253

We interrupt all the coffee craziness going on at the Coffee Lovers Blog Hop, to see what can be done with the Reverse Stencil Challenge at Papertrey Ink.

I have to confess that most times my use of a brayer and inking of stencils ends up with a brayer that won’t come clean and ink everywhere but where I want it.  This is a technique, I think. that is easy to do and very difficult to perfect.  In the end, I came up with something that I think looks quite nice.

The small butterflies are covered with Shimmer Embellisher to give them some dimension  and the last picture does show the embossing details on the large butterfly.
