christmas card club challenge 7 use a stencil.....

I have used a stencil I bought some time back...but always forget about them so thank you Carol for challenging me to use one....




I have used the Imaginations crafts sparkle medium through the stencil...the poinsettia have been 3d with the small spellbinder dies cut out of card and covered in the same sparkle medium...the embossing folder is a crafters companion one again from some years ago....
Hope you are having a lovely crafty Sunday......

This is really festive Margaret. The sparkly medium is great. I'll have to have ago at using my stencils now! I even got some paste last year too and not done anything with it. Shame on me. Hugs Christine x

Ah, this is so pretty, and the golden paste lights, brilliant idea! Loved your comment, and your word was exactly the one I had in mind when I said all kept turning to dust. I was enjoying making the backgrounds, but oh, did I ever get so discouraged with each effort! Learned a lot though, and I'm glad you kept going with your efforts, Cause you surely turned out a beaut of a card. Loved the dimensional poinsettias too. A great design all round! Hugs & TFS

This is just so beautiful. I love the sparkle of everything and the paste you used to achieve all of this. Everything looks perfect with the background card stock.

Margret you make the most beautiful cards and this one is not exception! Stencils don't seem to like me and I am not comfortable with embossing. Oh well - I am getting ready to post my card - 3 days late!!
You card is gorgeous!
