A fun new release and an easy stencil hack!

October 5, 2023

A fun new release and an easy stencil hack!

Welcome to the Waffle Flower Give Thanks release blog hop! Today I’m sharing a lovely fall themed card, plus I am sharing a fun little stencil hack that you might have to try.

I used the Fall Leaves Background Stencil to create this lovely panel, and I also dry embossed with it, as well. And even though it’s shifted, going through my die cut machine, I love the offset of the emboss.

The large Give Thanks Print Dies are the perfect greeting for this card! Here is my video showing you how it came together, plus the fun hack!
