Hello, good to you see you! Today’s post shows cases a technique I picked up from another one of the ACEP classes: Celebration Stencil Techqniues. The classes showcases a variety of ways to use stencils in your papercrafts and from apply ink, to more substantial media such as embossing paste and also shows off using watercolours with your stencils too. Using watercolours with stencils was not something I had considered before so I was eager to use this stencilling technique within my cards. In addition, I wanted to add more texture to the background and use the dry emboss stencil technique to add more interest and technique to the background. Luckily I have filmed the process for you to all to enjoy. So sit back, relax and enjoy!

I love the birthday card with the cakes and goodies! It’s not something I would think to make and I think that’s why I’m drawn to it so much! The stencil, the splatters and embossing, it’s just so wonderful!! <3
Thank you Amanda for the lovely comments. So glad you like it!
