I actually was able to play along today because I broke down and ordered some Colorburst powders after Christmas. I did go a little rogue and decide to do shaving cream stenciling because I wanted to use this fabulous Stamplorations stencil for the background for this cute sloth. I hope that's OK. But I did lose the Colorburst quality in the stencil technique. The sloth was waiting on my list of stamps to use for the first time ever and I popped him up with my favorite new Avery Elle frame. That's sloths for the TLC two weeks in a row from me. I guess I'm in a sloth kind of mood--as evidenced by my complete resistance to exercise lately.

Wonderful card! The stencilled BG really sets off that adorable sloth! Your coloring really makes him look soft and fuzzy - it's on my bucket list to find out what they feel like someday!!

I love that you took the technique outside of the box, or rather inside the stencil. We all can learn from your fabulous innovation. Beautiful colors and the streaks are wonderful.

I really like the way you used the shav. cream for the stencil. That image is SO adorable!! Exercise? I thought you said extra fries.

Cute sloth, Jen, and a lovely stencilled background. Can you believe, I still haven't tried the stencil technique. And after two goes with the Brushos, I don't have much of that shaving foam left so I'd better get round to it soon. Take it easy is a lovely birthday wish .

I am with you about feeling a bit slothful about exercise in this upside down world at the moment. Guess we all feel like just hanging around in our own trees at the moment like this very cute little sloth.

Fabulous card. I love how that blue stenciled background looks with this adorable little guy. Thanks for sharing with the STAMPlorations Stencil Challenge.
