After playing with the Dylusions Couture Stencils I just had to create a bride and bridesmaids!

Step 1: I had made and hand-cut the man silhouette on the back page so I flipped the stencil and use it in the back. Using Dyan’s stamp as my inspiration I drew his outfit. For her, I placed her nearby him and started doing the dress in layers. You will need to repeat this 5 Times for a layered look
Step 2: I used one of the lady stencils for the head and shoulders. Connecting them to the first stencil.
Step 3: You will draw a waist from the skirt to the center, a sort of arm, and a boat neck connecting the original stencil.
Step 4: You will finish the look by using the tropical flowers stencil it sort of looks like lace!
Step 5: Use the white paint to go in between the lines.
Step 6: For the bridesmaids, I used all the girl stencils I had and left the dress short. The lady stencils will give you heads and legs.
Step 7: It’s easy to go over each one because you don’t need to mask the dress in between.
Step 8: I truly enjoy giving them shoes and heads! I did the same lace pattern on her. For the bridesmaids, I used Shimmer Paint to fill the stencil.
Step 9: Mask the first one.
Step 10: That way you will fill all three dresses with paint and don’t forget the shoes in the glorious shimmer!
Step 11: Use the border stencil to add some love to your spread!
