Pretty sure I like this stenciling thing...

(Scroll down for my Retro Sketches card....)

Today has been one of those days that is so productive, you have no idea where the energy came from.  As I mentioned in my Retro Sketches post, I woke up ridiculously early.  I typed up that post....and then the cleaning started.  The kitchen....done..  Floors...done.  Sliding glass doors...cleaned.  Beds stripped.  Then what do I next?  I go to the gym.  An hour of an amazing work out.  Then home again....and some more cleaning.  Where is this all coming from?   I wouldn't normally share this kind of stuff but....these days are few and far between.  And I must document all that I accomplished or I might forget.  lol!  With the kids playing with their cousins today, a quiet house had been a productive one.  

So now I am stopping in to share my first stenciled card.  If you are not taking the class...you should.  So much great info in one place!

I loved Debby's video and card so much, I had to give her technique a try....and of course, CASE her card!

Instead of making the tag, I used a Lil Inkers square to cut the vellum and then heat embossed that amazingly gorgeous sentiment with white embossing powder.  

Then I sewed it down.  Yes.  I sewed again.  I may sew on every card ever now.  Not really....don't hold me to that but right now it feels like I might.  There is just something about that easily accessible sewing machine now.  So handy!

Ok. I am off to switch the laundry.  And maybe fold towels.  Yay!  I am thinking now that I sat down the motivation is wearing off.  A nap maybe?  :)

Have a great day!
