3 Christmas-in-July cards using stencils and pastes


Congratulations to this week's Splitcoaststampers' Featured Stamper, Lee Ann (whippetgirl).

I chose this card as my inspiration:



I focused on Lee Ann's:
-green, white, red, black colours
-leafy background
-joy sentiment

I changed:
-die cut sentiment
-techniques
-no ribbon

I started with an idea for one card, but went through some struggles and changes in plan before ending up with 3 same-but-different cards.

I experimented with 2 types of glitter paste (Nuvo Glimmer Paste and GinaK Glitz Glitter Gel) and a double-stencil technique.

Here's a video:

  1. Thanks for the video Ardyth, boo boos and all!! That's how we all learn! Wonderful outcomes, all three, but the one that appealed the most was the final one with the three red 'pearls'.
    Blessings

  2. How fun! I'm not sure I want to try all the glimmery stuff yet. But you did a fine job of showing what to do or not to do. I really liked the last one best. The greens are beautiful with just the pop of red gems. I love that you show us everything. Thanks, Brenda
