Hello everyone,
I'm back with my second inspiration post as GDT for CHRISTMAS CRAFT CREATIONS
and this time I'm using a stencil..
as the theme is Stenciling or embossing folders..
This stencil is gorgeous but not sure where it came from..
it is small [ 5 1/2 x 5 1/2 ] so I stenciled white paste through it..twice.
After cutting them, the panels were too small for what I wanted...soooo.
I did some surgery..
at first glance you can't really tell but the snowflakes didn't line up properly..
So I added a strip of navy card stock..
Secured very strongly in the back..
Now it does not matter if they line or not.
I chose very light mint green card for matting with, why, I do not know..
But it looks nice..I'm happy now.
After adding the large white Merry Christmas die, strategically placed over that blue strip,
I needed pearls in the centers of the flakes..
and then she was done..
So do pop over and join in with the challenge HERE
