The stencil I used today is relatively new from Simon Says Stamp...and has 4 layers. I jazzed it up a bit by using the 4th layer twice (flower centers) by applying a layer of Lawn Fawn's Fairy Dust (sparkly paste) on the second pass. As final touches I used an embossing die to decorate the edges, and added a vellum backed, layered sentiment. This sentiment does not come with an outline die so I just fussy cut the vellum.
Continuing with my New Year's resolution, I made two additional backgrounds (no sentiment) for future use.

These are bright and cheerful, Elizabeth! Cute too!
I love the whimsical nature of your stenciled flower garden, Elizabeth, and I'm sure the fairy dust only adds to that.
Fabulous stencilling Elizabeth and oh so colourful. Nice touch of bling and bold sentiment.
Very unique and modern looking! Love your bright colors!
This is so bright and cheerful! I love your beautiful stenciling and colors paired with the vellum backed sentiment. I still can't believe that I have resisted purchasing any layering stencils so far.
I so love your card, Elizabeth. The detail og the edges, vellum and sparkle really make it extra special. I love it. And I love your "make 3" resolution. Great idea!
I have resisted this stencil but you've really shown how to make it beautiful with your card, Elizabeth! Love the added sparkle and the die cut rectangle edge - both delightful details!
