Stenciling 2 Ways, 2 Different Cards! Plus Simon’s Celebrate Blog Hop!
I love being able to stretch my supplies and use the same products in more than one way. In this video, I want to show you how you can take the same stenciled background using Simon Says Stamp’s Groovy Blooms layering set and use it to make two completely different cards. Both of my cards feature new products from Simon’s Celebrate release.
This first card uses the Feather Spiral embossing folder to add an embossed texture to the stenciled background. I also decorated the card with the new Whirl Butterfly die and a greeting from Flower Power set.
This edge to edge shaker is just so bright and happy! It uses the Flower Power stamp set to add the black outline florals on top of the stenciling. The large flower on top of the shaker was created with the coordinating Flower Power stencil and die set.
