Happy Birthday to You

 Hello friends.  It is time for a new challenge at Seize the Birthday and Barbara wants us to use double stenciling on our cards.  For Double Stenciling, she would like us to use a stencil and before you pick it up, place another one over the top and fill in it. not just use two stencils but to double stencil.  Here is the link to a video explaining the technique.

 

and here is my card using this technique.

 I used my new Pinkfresh Studio's Magnolias Stamp, die, and stencils.  The stamps and dies are all grouped together so you stamp them all at once. I stamped mine with Memento Tuxedo Black ink and then used the stencil to blend SU Blushing Bride ink over the flowers, then I placed Tim Holtz Dot Fade stencil over that stencil and blended SU Melon Mambo ink over it.  After lifting the 2 stencils,  I added a little Regal Rose (ret.) ink with the 2nd flower layer.  For the leaves I blended SU Wild Wasabi ink (ret.) over the leaves and then placed the Dot Fade stencil over them and used the same ink for the dots.  I die cut the images and arranged them, with foam tape, on a pale blue panel embossed with Taylored Expressions Brick EF, and then to the white card base.  The sentiment is from Penny Black Super Day stamp set and it is mounted with foam tape also.

Be sure to check out all the fabulous stenciled cards by the team and our Guest Designers over at Seize the Birthday.  Hope you will try this fun technique.

Thanks so much for stopping by.  Have a wonderful day.

Happy Stamping,
JoAnn
