Bobby is our host at Just us Girls #781 and she's invited us to play with stencils - always one of the most relaxing ways to spend time in my craft room!
I've brought out those Oxeye Daisies from Altenew again. This time I used the coordinating stencils to add color to them and then, using a mask, found a fun way to stencil their background, too!
By cutting my masking paper with the coordinating die, I was able to
stamp the daisies, color them with the stencils then cover that to add
a stenciled pattern - first, here are my chosen inks for the daisies:
This is an oldie - not even sure whose it is - but I love the results!
After adding a fun sentiment, a bit of Diamond Stickles, and trimming the panel down using a stitched rectangle die, my card for Bobby's challenge is complete!
Laundry is calling... thanks for stopping by!

I love those Daisies Michele and think they need to come to my house for a visit...pretty please?? Great job with the masking for the background too...maybe a TH stencil? Lovely, lovely card my friend!! Hugs. :0)
ReplyDeleteIt's complete and it's completely pretty! That background was made for those daisies. Love this one, Michele and so happy to spot it in our JUGs gallery!
ReplyDeleteWhat a clever way to add stenciling to a beautiful die cut, Michele! Hmm, that opens up a whole new realm of possibilities! Thanks for the inspiration. As always.
ReplyDeleteWell done! Masking and stenciling you rock it! Thanks for sharing at JUGS
ReplyDeleteThe daisies are gorgeous, and using the die to create a mask was such a great idea! Great card!
ReplyDeleteWell, isn't this just a delight?! So pretty!
ReplyDeletelove the two stencils each with their own job and they do it well together.
ReplyDeleteWow! You made a beautiful card, but you also made a beautiful technique! Love it
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card and a great idea to stencil a background to boot! Nice!!
ReplyDeleteThe masked stenciling goes perfectly with these pretty flowers. A dimensional card without the extra dimension. I always love a happy mail friendly card. Super cute, my friend.
ReplyDeleteThis is stellar, Michele! That die must cut very close to the flowers because you can't see a rim around them where you stenciled the background - unless you have a secret. You're giving me ideas! ;) Thanks for sharing this beauty with us at Just Us Girls.
ReplyDeleteBrilliant and beautiful! The die cut mask allowed for a very closely stenciled background, and such a nice stencil it is with those pretty flowers. Love how this turned out!
ReplyDeleteMichele... as always, you are so clever! and I love seeing you in the Just Us Girls gallery!
ReplyDeleteLove the subtle stenciled background that lets your gorgeous blooms shine! What a clever way to stencil---must remember the Ferguson technique!
ReplyDeleteWhat a pretty, pretty card Michele! I love the colors you chose for the flowers so much too! Great technique....I will remember it. Thanks for joining us this week at JUGS. I always enjoy your cards so much.
ReplyDeleteNo one dulls your sparkle girlfriend! I love this!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea! I have this set on my radar as I am teaching a live class with in September this year and I love what you have done with it!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card Michele. LOVE those gorgeous daisies and have just added them to my list on SSS. You are a very good enabler. :) I love them with the soft tan stenciling in the background. Amazing card! xx
