Just Us Girls #781 -- ANYTHING GOES STENCIL Week



Join us! It is 
ANYTHING GOES STENCIL week at Just Us Girls.  Bobby is challenging us to use a stencil in creating our cards this week.   

I decided to play with Simon Hurley's In Bloom layering stencil.  This is a set of three stencils.  The card above features the smallest of the three blooms, moving the stencil around to accommodate three colors.  Below you can see other patterns and colors.  This is a simple card.  The final touches are a vellum backed, layered sentiment, and gems.  I love stencils like this one where you can make a number of great looking backgrounds quickly.


Check out our fabulous guest designer for June, Joanne James. Joanne is an amazing cardmaker and one of my wonderful design teammates at The Paper Players. Please welcome her and check out her fabulous work over at the Crafty Owl

Also check out the design team.  These ladies work hard to inspire you each week.  Drop by their blogs and leave them a little love.

What a lovely collection of stencilled backgrounds Elizabeth - I think the simplest one is my favourite and I love the blend of pinks too. Thanks for having me as your JUGS guest this month - it's been fab!

Your array of In Bloom stenciled backgrounds are absolutely delightful; talk about versatility of colour and design. Love these! I'd be thrilled if you'd share your card over at Inkspirational, where our challenge is Use Stencils. Hope to see you there.
