Stencil Palooza!

Happy March! I'm not sure if it's the sun peeking out behind the clouds lately or if it's National Craft Month, but I'm in the mood to make things!

This week Stampendous is having a Stencil Palooza of a show and I decided to play along with a new project.

Stop by the Stampendous blog and see more fantastic projects!
