Layering Stencil Poppy Bouquet Card

A project from our live show HOBBYMAKER TV - Join us for the latest show - Broadcast 2 p.m. (UK) 15th August 2026 · 08/15/2026

Using a multi-layer stencil system, you'll build up colour and dimension by applying inks in sequence to achieve a beautiful, artistic botanical design. This technique allows you to create professional-looking layered florals with depth and visual interest.
