It’s new release day at Waffle Flower Crafts and today I’m sharing a fun and simple design featuring some layered heart stencils and a simple greeting.
I think this stencil set is just darling!
I feel like 2021 is going to be my personal Year of the Stencil! At the very least, I’m going to play with more of them and try some new things!
I have really been enjoying the world of stencils over the past several months. They are a fun way to create such unique, one-of-a-kind backgrounds for your cards.
Here is my video showing you how I created the project:
