Layering Stencils Birthday Card Background

June 18, 2021 by Heather Holbrook

Layering Stencils Birthday Card Background

Stencils are so popular and are great for creating backgrounds on cards. Amanda took her stenciled background to a whole new level by adding 3 different stenciled layers to her wonderful Slimline Birthday Card design. She started off ink blending a sun ray stencil, then added colorful balloons with a second stencil and then used that same stencil again but with deco paste for bold black balloons over top. The results are tons of amazing depth and dimension for her background!

Visit the Trinity Stamps blog for directions.
