Pick of the week - stenciling

Hello. It's my turn to pick what to focus on over at The House That Stamps Built. This week, I want to focus on Stenciling.



 First of all I stamped the sentiment and the bee in Versafine ink and heat embossed them with clear embossing powder.

Then, I stenciled the honeycomb back ground onto a white card panel using Distress squeezed lemonade ink and a blending tool. I went a little bit brighter or darker on the inside and then fading out toward the edge of the card.

Stamps used are 9308 W Bee and 9312 W just "bee" cause.  I kept this very clean and simple so that the focal point of the stenciling doesn't get lost. I also stamped a bee in the inside right hand corner to continue with the cuteness!

Hope your inspired to get out your stencils and play around a bit.

Thanks for stopping by!

    How sweet - love this little bee - and I know I have that stencil. I'm liking pick of the week vs. project of the week. Less pressure.
