Join us! It is ANYTHING GOES STENCIL week at Just Us Girls. Lisa is challenging us to use a stencil in our card creations this week. I made two cards for this week's challenge with stenciled backgrounds and bold, simple sentiments. The stencils I used for the cards above are from a fairly new-to-me stencil source, Killer Zebras. I have bought several of their stencils and love all of them so far. Killer Zebras is a cookie decorating site that sells cookie cutters, cookie decorating supplies, and cookie stencils. Cookie stencils are made of the same material, and are slightly smaller (5.5" x 5.5"), but cheaper, than most cardmaking stencils.
Because of the smaller stencils size, the stencil panels have to be trimmed and layered on the cardbases. Personally, I just love the Just Peachy card and think any recipient will smile. I made a half dozen of each card for donation.
Check out our fabulous guest designer for September, Jaydee! Please welcome her and check out her fabulous work over at Stampin' with Jaydee. I have known Jaydee for a long time... and her style is so clean with a touch of humor. I love her cards!
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.
Enjoy! I am looking forward to your inspired creations in the gallery.

These are both fabulous Elizabeth - and I think the peachy one is so perfect for a 'how's things?' card. You are my queen of stencils, for sure!

Elizabeth, I have been browsing those cookie stencils because your cards are so fun and colorful. Both of them have such happy colors and sentiments. Great stenciled cards for sure!
