Oriental vibe

Hello crafters, 
Today is the penultimate day of our STAMPLorations Birthday Celebrations.

Whilst playing with the Profile 3 - Slimline stencil with different media I happened on the idea of a two-fer...

Unlike this project stencilled with acrylic paint, I used ink this time (Tsukineko Brilliance), applied directly with the pad to a Gelli plate print. I realised quickly that I was inking the entirety of the stencil and could be wasting a lot of ink! This gave me the idea of trying to transfer the ink onto  another  piece of Gelli plate.

To do this I placed the inked stencil face down on top of the Gelli print and run the sandwich through the die-cutting machine. The ink being slow drying, it did transfer to the Gelli print, which I then die cut with an oval shape die.

I also die-cut the stencilled face with the same oval, obtaining both "positive" and "negative" images... Yin and Yang...

As a nod to the oriental vibe I added some Bamboo stencilling to my base card with green ink, before adding the faces.

The sentiment is computer printed.
