Stenciling

Recently, whilst in London, I bought a craft magazine which gave
a bunch of free stencils (I just couldn't find a digital scrapbooking
magazine anywhere!), so I thought I would give stenciling a go and
here is what I came up with.  I must say I was surprised at how
easy it is to do.  In the first photo are the pieces I put together.
The flowers I glittered.

A Birthday Card

Been away awhile visiting family and friends in London.
Made a special journey to a hobbycraft shop in Greenford,
which was very worthwhile.  Now I have two more die sets,
rhinestones and a great set of clear stamp general sentiments
- been looking ages for sentiments like these.
