Create the Look of Stained Glass with Stenciling & Watercolor

Can you mix ink-blended stenciling with watercolor? I decided to try it out and it turned out really awesome! The combination created a stained glass look! For this technique I used the Cara Medallion Stencil Pack and Distress Inks in various colors.

This card was so fun to create! Enjoy!
