Hey there! It's time for another Just Us Girls challenge! Sue is our hostess this week and she is challenging us to make our own stencils using die cuts. I took the opportunity to make a valentine card for my parents!
I die cut a piece of packaging cardboard with an Avery Elle polka dot cover plate. Using PTI's Lavender Moon ink, I stenciled a large SB label. The white heart was decorated with stenciled leaves made from a PTI sweet celebrations die. The flowers are die cuts from the same set. I used the smaller one to stencil the red flower centers in. The love you sentiment is from my Sweet Pea stamp set. I like the way this turned out and I think my mom and dad will too!
These are the dies I used.
Okay, your turn! I'm looking forward to our gallery this week!

Such a lovely card, Lisa! I am a huge fan of Polka dots and I love the soft lilac color you chose. I think the flowers are terrific with their raspberry-colored centers! You are a very versatile card maker and I am always surprised with your cards!

Oh Lisa, this is gorgeous. What a great challenge this is, and you have worked it beautifully. I love the colors you chose, and that you've left a lot of white too. It makes everything stand out so beautifully. Love the background, the jewels, the flower centers... Love it all.

Just look at all that stenciling! I especially love how you stenciled the flower centers--brilliant! I know your folks love it!
What a delightful card, Lisa! I love the very soft and pale colors you used on the stenciled elements.
Gorgeous card and I love the clever way you added more color and interest to the flowers by doing stenciling over them!
