This month I've been creating cards using a design I love but rarely remember to use. It's great for one layer cards - the split design with a sentiment in the middle area.
Well today's card was a leftover from last week's which was a combo of two ideas. Use a stencil to create the images and make your own stencil using a cover plate die! And when you've used the fussy cut portion of the die cut as a stencil and inked through it, you just can't throw that beauty away!
Distress inks - Blueprint Sketch, Mermaid Lagoon, Old Paper, Iced Spruce
That white portion of the die cut along the bottom was covered by my mask when I inked last week's card. I thought about inking it up for today's but then decided I liked that added unexpected touch of white.

Beautiful card! I love the clean design. I love how you used the die that was previously used as a stencil.
I'm a nothing goes to waste kind of gal and I love how you used this left-over die-cut. Very intriguing leaving the bottom white. I like it! So glad you joined us at Die Cut Divas for our February challenge
What a cool design! Love the color!
The unexpected touch of white works awesomely here. Great call! This is such a fresh, beautiful design.
