Just Us Girls #798 -- ANYTHING GOES STENCIL Week

Join us! It is ANYTHING GOES STENCIL week at Just Us Girls.  Ina is challenging us to use a stencil in our card creations this week. 

Not surprisingly, I am still working on the Christmas stash.  I am using a new, layered stencil this week from a new-to-me company, Polkadoodles.  First, I was surprised when I received the stencil...it is big! 8x8" You can tell I don't read the descriptions.  It is not quite big enough to do two panels at one time which would be nice! Also there are no markings on the stencils... I spent an inordinate amount of time figuring out how to line up one of the stencils.  Needless to say, the stencils are all marked now.  

The stenciling was easy and I love the modern look.  I made a half a dozen panels. I think I could change up the color of the berries and leaves and have a beautiful fall card too.  To keep the card fun, I added a dark pink, layered sentiment back in vellum.
