WT738 - Stencils

[Shoe Girl]

Lisa here your hostess for this weeks Ways to Use It challenge.

When I initially came up with the thought for this challenge I had a card in mind I wanted to make. Then I got behind in my card donation for my pet sympathy cards and went in a whole new direction on my stencil card. Today's challenge, use a stencil on your cards.

There are some terrific tutorials using stencils. Check a few out and have fun with one on your card. I can't wait to see what you create with a stencil.

2. In this thread, click on reply and type anything you want to show before the link.

3. Go to your card window. Highlight the address for your card. (It says www. splitcoaststampers.com/gallery/showphoto..... and so on)

Thanks Lisa, I watched all your links...stencils are so fun and I took quite a journey clicking on the random links within links. In the end, I did a reverse clock stencil with spray.

Here's mine: ...if I could turn back time

Fun challenge Lisa, me too I hesitated which of the techniques to use will maybe make another this afternoon with a different technique

I finished a card which has been sitting on my desk for a while with this challenge as a prompt - I didn't want to add any more stamping but a stencil to remove some colour was just perfect. Thanks, Lisa.

I am working toward my "Challenge Catch-Up" goal as usual!

My floral bouquet was a homemade white cardstock stencil used on another card to create a colorful blender brush negative inked floral bouquet. I am recycling my leftover inked homemade cardstock stencil for this card. (I just love this idea...two cards in one!)
