Nicole, thank you for sharing your tips and techniques for stenciling and creating awesome cards.

Clearly articulated detailed instruction. Yes, curious about what comes next for the finished cards.

Beautiful!

[@NicoleWatsonArt]

thank you!!

[@MicheleEngel]

Thank you for this great demo! It looks like you're using original ephemera (as opposed to digital prints). Is that the case? Or perhaps a combination of both?

[@NicoleWatsonArt]

you're welcome! It's all original ephemera.

[@user-fi2sr7ry3o]

I loved this video and your results. I’m very curious about what you will do with the cards. Definitely going to check out your channel ❤

[@NicoleWatsonArt]

thank you!! I'll either finish the cards into final pieces of art or use them as a tip-in for my art journals. sometimes I use the final pieces for greeting cards, small framed art, shelf sitters, etc...
