Design Team Inspiration

Christy‘s rainbow-colored birthday card is so much fun! She stenciled with Bunting Background Stencils on top of a Cloudy Stenciled sky. She also stenciled the grassy border. The adorable images from Yappy Birthday and Yappy Birthday Add-On are so perfect in this happy setting!

To create this amazing card, Samantha first inked up the Corner Rainbow Stencil in cool colors of ink. She used Distress Ink in Wilted Violet, Seedless Preserves, Blueprint Sketch, Mermaid Lagoon, Peacock Feathers, Salvaged Patina and Cracked Pistachio. Then she used white embossing paste to add textured clouds with Cloud Background Stencils. The brightly inked Giant Hello Sunshine is so sunny!

Franci stenciled a subtle all-over Tropical Leaves Background on a card panel before arranging some cute critters from Toucan Do It. Such a beautiful card!

Joyce‘s bold Lots of Stars Background Stencils design is perfect for Father’s Day! She stenciled the stars on Sticky Note cardstock with Distress Oxide Ink in Prize Ribbon and Candied Apple! Then she added lots of fun images from All Star!

Karin is getting a jump on her Christmas cards with this beautiful design! She combined Winter Birds on a Lacy Heart with Lots of Hearts Background Stencils.

Samantha inked up a cloudy backdrop with Cloud Background Stencils. They are perfect with the Fly High hot air balloons and cute elephants from Elephant Parade and Elephant Parade Add-On!

Catherine got really creative with this fun water park scene! She used Draped Ribbons Stencil to create the colorful water slide! She added Stitched Wave Borders and Simple Puffy Cloud Frames to build the scene. Then lots of cute mice from You Autumn Know and Really High Five get in on the watery fun on pool floats from Pool Party to complete this summery card!

Mimi‘s cheerful birthday card combines Bunting Background Stencils with confetti and balloons from Balloons Stencil! She created the fun party with Simple Celebrate More Critters, All the Party Hats and cake slices from Tea-rrific Day Add-On!

We will have more Design Team inspiration for the Feature a Stencil challenge right here over the next 2 weeks! Be sure to come back tomorrow when we’ll announce our Featured Fawnatics and random winner for Challenge 173 – Dies Only!
