Just Us Girls Challenge #829 - STENCIL WEEK

Hello friends.  Playing along with the gals over at JUGS where the sweet hostess Lisa is bringing us STENCIL WEEK.

I'm still hooked on The Greetery's Pretty Picado stencils and embossing folder, and although I never really send out 4th of July cards, I really wanted to try the Pretty Picado stencils in red, white & blue.  I think they turned out pretty cool, so let's take a look...

 Here's the red version.   I used 2 shades of red and 2 shades of blue (SU! inks) to stencil with the 4 stencils and then used the embossing folder to add dimension.  Much more noticeable in real life!!

I used the Capsule Basics dies and embossing folder for the red card base, and the "happy" is from the Opposites Attract stamp and die set (all from The Greetery).  The #4 is from the Delightful Digits dies, also from The Greetery. I finished with a bit of WOS on the #4 and a few red gems from PFS.

  Here's the blue version with the colors just switched around.

Done almost exactly the same as the red version except that I used more of the Capsule Basic dies to add a bit more dimension to this one.

And here they both are together.  Do you have a favorite?  I like them both equally and am happy with the way they turned out!!

Lots of BEAUTIFUL stenciled cards from the JUGS DT that you can find right HERE and then play along.  This challenge is open till Wednesday, July 1st @ 6:00PM.

Thanks for stopping by today ... I love it when you do!
