Four on Friday-Stencils

It's time for another Four on Friday! My friend, Alicia and I have a collaboration series called "Four on Friday". Every few Fridays, we will be sharing 4 different projects using the same technique, tool or type of product. To see previous Four on Friday posts, click HERE!

Today we're making 4 cards/projects using stencils! We both haven't used them very often so we thought this would be a fun way to get more familiar with them and hopefully use them more often. 

My first card uses a Kraftin' Kimmie stencil, Stained Glass. I thought it would work well for a honeycomb look to go with the Kraftin' Kimmie Sweet as can Bee! stamp set! I mean, how cute are those bees!! I just wanna scoop them up and hug 'em!

For my next card I used another Kraftin' Kimmie stencil, Lots o' Dots and paired it with the Kraftin' Kimmie stamp set, Cuddles the Puppy.  Such an adorable stamp set!  It was fun to make slimline card. The really are just so fun!

For my last card I thought it would be fun to use a stencil on some patterned paper. I found a scrap and then used the Kraftin' Kimmie Mermaid Scales Stencil on it. I really like the effect it produced! I'll be doing this more in the future!! I paired my paper with the Kraftin' Kimmie stamp set, My Happy Place. She makes me smile!
