This week the Stampendous Design Team is showcasing the beautiful new stencils that were released in April. I love this new Compass Metal Stencil (FMS4016) paired with the Voyage Under the Sea collection from Graphic45. It makes a wonderful masculine card perfect for Father's Day or Birthday (or even Anniversary). The best part is this is a super quick and easy card to make.

LOVE this stencil!! I am going to use it to make a Graduation card for a young man who needs a little guidance from his Compass! Thanks for the inspiration!
Oh this is a card design that really shines! The combination of pattern paper and contrast in the stenciling really make this layout ROCK! Thank you for sharing today!
