Simon Says Stamp - TILED ART Friendship Card

Hello Lovelies! Being the messy crafter that I am, when I first saw the Tiled Art Stencil, I didn't think that I was going to get this right . That didn't stop me from trying though, and I'm SO glad that I did!

I have a soft spot in my heart for yellows and purples. For today's card, I decided to do all my layers in purple, and finish with on ombre die-cut framing my sentiment.

If I can get this stenciling right, you definitely can!

The ombre leaves livens up the card front and frames our sentiment!

I really think stenciling may be my fave technique!
