{Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge} Stencil It



Welcome to the second Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge in June! This week's challenge is Stencil It, which means you need to use a stencil on your project. The design team is featuring The Crafter's Workshop products. You don't have to use it but we'd love to see some if you have it.


I created a very full and colourful birthday card. First, I created the background by stencilling the card base using TCW's Mini Chunky Chevron stencil and pearlescent embossing paste. The adorable images and sentiments are from Avery Elle's Red & Goldie stamp and die sets.


I layered vellum doilies and a vellum heart from Crate Paper's Styleboard Vellum Shapes collection with patterned paper from the Flea Market 6x6 paper pad. To finish the card, I rounded the bottom left-hand corner with a corner chomper.


One winner will be chosen at random to win a $50 gift voucher to the awesome Simon Says Stamp Store!


It could be you!



I hope you will play along with us this week!



Thanks for stopping by today! Have a wonderful Wednesday. :)
