First let me say that my stampin' Ladies were over on Sat and we learned how to stencil. All said and done, I decided stenciling was NOT for me. So who is reading my brain and testing me today? I decided to be brave, and here is my card for two challenges for today. I don't think I left ONE fingerprint on this time either.
The technique challenge was to stamp inside your stencil. I hope I did it right as I was not understanding until I looked in the gallery. (Horrors! I never look before I design) Today I did and was inspired by Kathy LeDonne's card. This is how I understood the directions:
I cut an oval with a spellbinders die for my stencil. I held it on top of the piece of designer paper and sponged the edges. Then I stamped the poppies with the same color. My first try had the sentiment stamped in the same color too, but it didn't show up well, so I stamped this one in black.
Except for the fact that it looks like a cute little face with long eyelashes and cute lips, I like it. I maybe need to try something other than an oval next time for the stencil. Thanks for looking.
