Breath of Fresh Air

Hello and welcome! Are you ready for some summer or vacation activities on the way in just a matter of weeks? I'm having so much fun with this new Concord & 9th Seaside bundle!! I made a mini slimline size card this time for our Just Us Girls Anything Goes Stencil Week #820, hosted by Vicki. Be sure to visit the team blogs as well as our guest Rosemary's for all of their wonderful card inspiration.



Here is the stenciling before adding all the fun die cuts and some stamping. What a difference!







I used all sorts of inks and scraps of cardstock for the rest of the card. The waves, windows and door details are stamped. The rest are die cut and layered together. You can add a lot or a little to the stenciled scene. So. Much. Fun. Where do you think this scene could be? It's nice to think about that for a while.

We hope you will join us this week with your stenciled cards. There is something magical about a design coming to life as you stencil, don't you think?

Thanks for stopping by,
Carol

    You are the queen of designing scenes, Carol. I saw Jennifer McGuire demonstrate this set and was intrigued. But not enough to buy. lol It's better in your hands with your decorating talent.
