I’ve always enjoyed stenciling, so I used this technique with the Occasions 2019, Well Said Bundle, and one of my favorite color combinations, pink and green.

Well Said Stenciling
The Delightfully Detailed Laser-Cut paper in the Annual Catalog makes a great stencil, and one I have used a number of times in the past. I first cut two rectangles from Whisper White cardstock, using a 2019 Occasions Rectangle die. Then, I placed a section of the Laser-Cut Paper over one of the rectangles, and used a Sponge Dauber to apply Powder Pink ink, repeating the process with Pear Pizzazz ink.

For the background, I embossed Whisper White cardstock with the Simple Stripes embossing folder, and layered it on a Thick Whisper White card base.

The sentiment, “Happy Birthday,” is from the 2019 Occasions, Well Said stamp set, which I stamped in Black ink on a Stitched Shapes, die cut oval.
Whisper White, floral sprigs, from the 2019 Occasions Well Written die set, are attached to the oval by dimensionals.
Isn’t the Powder Pink bird sweet? She is also from the Well Written die set.

My inspiration for today’s project is from Freshly Made Sketches.

This is a stunning card, Su! I made two versions… your color scheme, and then green with turquoise. So beautiful! Thanks for sharing. ❤️ Happy New Year from California. ?
Ever so pretty. Love your take on the sketch.
Gorgeous. I too love to stencil. If you spray the paper with clear multi layers of acrylic paint you can use then with embossing paste.
Hi Donata! Your acrylic paint/embossing technique sounds interesting. I’ll have to give it a try. Thank you!
