Brocade Stencil Mother Card


I have been seeing these stencil cards everywhere and have been dying to try one. I have got to say....I am in love with these. As you may or may not know, Stampin' Up! sells decor elements- vinyl wall pieces and stencils. Well of course, brilliant people have been finding more things to do with them other than just put them in your home. This is where this card comes in. I have seen lots of stencil card samples. It was super easy to do! And, this stencil is only $9.95! The big brocade on the card was made by placing a stencil on the card and dabbing some ink on the stencil with a sponge dauber. The trick is to dab straight down and not from side to side.
I made 8 of these for a card swap I am participating in today and it took me about an hour to do them. That is great time, in my opinion!
This is going to be one of my May CSD class projects. I hope you can join me. Here is the recipe:
Ink: Choclate Chip, Crushed Curry
Stamps: Well Scripted, Vintage Vogue
Paper: Kraft, Whisper White, Crushed Curry
Accessories: Wide Oval Punch, Kind Thoughts Brocade Stencil-small, Pearls, Sponge Dauber, Dimensionals
