I made some invitations for my crafty friends with this set and they came together super fast. The stencils are easy to line up and the roses are beautiful. I was hesitant to not have a stamp to create the lines but the stencils really do all the work of creating dimension. Such fun!
This is my first stencil art I got. Looks like a no line watercolor look. this is so beautiful, and the last stencil in this set is very beautiful and can be used on other projects as well. Very well designed.
I purchased these to use for my daughter's wedding scrapbook pages and they are lovely. I can stamp directly on the pages with my large Misty and use the die cut to have additional embellishments all the while using colors that enhance the individual page, bringing unity to the book. Also looking forward to using these roses on cards!
I mark the stamps and the layering guide with a permanent marker to make alignment easier. After using several times in a row, it is much easier - practice makes perfect!
I do like the look of these roses without a stamp because they really enhance the romantic look for this set.
I'm not as fond of the word stencil background provided, it's ok enough to make out the words a bit but I'm not yet sure how I'll use it for a background based on the way the words turn out a little thicker looking when inked. I know the point isn't for them to be readable, but I think it would look better with the text being crisper when inked.
The stencils alignment is ok, it may take a few tries to get it really perfect and closer to how they display the images on the packaging. I personally think that these stencil only sets should be made with full border markings to assist with alignment. This set has a few, but you will still have to adjust the stencils to get them to work out like they should.
