In a recent zoom we made cards using a few techniques by Eileen Godwin. We watched her video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RV7ikfhcZAs to see how she does it. I love the soft look her cards produce and love the cards we all made.
I used Distress Ink and brushed the colors over a stencil. Then I used a Lavinia stamp called Sacred Tree and stamped over it. It's so easy and the results are pretty.

What a lovely technique. I love the combination of the bold graphic tree and the soft inking.
So pretty and a lovely technique Brenda.
your card is beautiful Brenda, the soft stenciling is perfect for the tree. Looking forward to the next session :)
Your card turned out to be quite pretty! Nice to see a big tree like this for the focal point! Great soft background for it too! NJ!
I love this card too. Fantastic design. Stenciling on the background is fantastic. You have chosen perfect stamp of the tree to complete the friendship card.
Hugs, Sonja
This is lovely Brenda, Lavinia stamps are so detailed and beautiful and Eileen is a genius with her techniques. These soft colours are gorgeous, Cathy x
I agree, she does do magic with her stencils and the softness she achieves with them! Gorgeous tree!
Stunning card Brenda, I love the delicate background for the lovely sihouette. I've seen a few of this style of card lately, I must give this technique a try soon. xx
Unique & so pretty!
Gorgeous card Brenda! Love the ink blended background ... looks like the sun is peeking out from behind the tree. And what a gorgeous tree it is! I have this on my wish list at Lavinia! :) Great work using Eileen's technique! xx

What a fantastic tree with it's twisted trunk, Brenda! The soft inking and stenciling make a perfect backdrop for this! Such a fun technique and even more fun to do it together!

I can see why you love this card Brenda, it is gorgeous! I love how soft the blending is and I love the bold design on top of it. A beautiful card indeed and looks like a fun technique! Hugs, Brenda
I love it, too! I think we all got good results, although I haven't finished mine yet. I really like how your stenciling looks in the background, Brenda. It's all ghostly and perfect to go along with that magnificent silhouette tree! Hugs, Darnell
I have yet to try this gorgeous technique. Hope I get good results like you did. Your card is beautiful.
