SSS Just a Note, Layered Sunflowers

 *This post contains affiliate links to Simon Says Stamp.


I've got a fun card to share today using the new Layered Sunflowers stencil set from the Just a Note release.

There are three stencils in this set.  Two of them create the different petal layers, and one adds the stem/leaves and flower center.

I thought it would be fun to stencil on kraft.  I started by inking the two petal layers using Sweets and Iris.


For the third stencil you have to be a little bit more careful because you don't want to get the leaf color in the flower center and vice versa.  I'm kind of lazy, and I didn't want to have to work too hard on being neat, so I came up with a super easy hack.  I just cut a v-shaped notch in a piece of cardstock to mask off the flower centers.  When it came to inking up the flower centers, I just inverted the mask to cover up the two stems/leaves that are right by it.  I used Field for the leaves and Cappuccino for the flower centers.


A sentiment from my Plant Sentiments set stamped with Woodsy completed the card.

Thanks for visiting!
