Hello there stampers!
Today I am using My Monthly Hero May 2018 stencil to create a Holiday card.
I grabbed 5 by 6 1/4 Big Sky SU card stock and stenciled the tree in the Night of Navy ink (also by SU). I then lifted the stencil and moved it a tiny bit to the left, just enough to off-set the image. I made sure that that stencil was secured in the off set position (taped it ) and I applied embossing paste to it making sure the entire image was uniformly covered. Now it is time to carefully lift the stencil. While the paste was still wet I applied glitter (Dazzling Diamonds to be exact, by SU, but any glitter would work). I let it dry over night and embossed the holiday greeting in silver the following day.
On the card below instead of the Night of Navy, I used Faded Jeans Distress Oxide ink and followed the same directions as above. Easy, peasy. I also added some Nuvo Drops just because I like Nuvo Drops. I embossed the greeting in white and added some more embossing paste to the edges and dipped them in glitter as well. Rule #1, there is no such thing as too much glitter. Enjoy!!!
