Americana Card - Using Stencils ( With Video)



Layered Stenciling to Create A Card
Stenciling can be an easy and fast way to make a card or provide background texture to a scrapbook page, canvas or altered piece of home decor. Combine different stencils and you've got a unique and fascinating project in the making.
I'd like to  show you the basics of this technique with a versatile way to use stencils and an equally versatile example.
I also have a short  short 4 min video to show just how easy this technique is by creating a quick "Primitive Style" card as an example to get those ideas flowing. Her card is classic Americana and is perfect for every occasion, just by changing the stamped sentiment.
Here's a look at the products used. You can create quite a bit of drama on your projects with some simple stenciling and ink.
THE VIDEO IS .....RIGHT HERE!
