Hello friends!
It's time for another installment of Virginia's Stencil Sunday series!
This time I am sharing my first take with this gorgeous stencil.

When you first see stencils like this, you really will not have any ideas how it will turn out..
At least, that was how I felt.

Once I approached it like how I do with color-layering stamps, it. is. AMAZING!
The stencil comes with two-step stenciling. It is self-explanatory and easy to line up.

I find the key of using this stencil is layering, layering and more layering...
After much color-layering with the ink and stencil, I decided to add white Embossing Paste with one of the fine spots from the Splatter Stencil.

Once I did all that, I realized that I wanted to stamp a bold sentiment "Just for You". I didn't want the sentiment attracting all the attentions from the stenciled design, so I kept it in two tone (grey and black).

Beautiful effect with the stencil! Love the colors!
WOW Virginia. What a stunning stencil. I've not seen layering stencils before. It really is amazing.
Very pretty results with stencils.
I'm really glad about this particular Stencil Sunday. I own this stencil and have been a bit intimidated by it so it has never been used. After seeing the extraordinary results you've achieved, you've inspired me to give it a try. We'll see how it turns out. But in the meantime, I've had the pleasure of seeing your gorgeous card.
Oh my, I think this stensil is amazing. Your card is gorgeous!
What a pretty card (and stencil) Virginia, I love this.
