Hello and Welcome!
This is for all you friends who are braving out the winter snow and cold. While I love the snow, some of those temps I've heard (-47 for one!), will keep me on my side of the U.S.! I mean, we get snow, we get down to the teens usually for a week, but this winter we seem to be on the warmer side of all that.
Anywhoooo.....
I started this card, thinking I'd be sending it to JUGs - Stencil week, but I missed that since it took me 3 days to complete it. My other hope was Christmas Kickstart #106 - Dreaming of a Pink Christmas. It appears I'll make this one by the skin of my chinny-chin-chin, so I'd better get with it!
An NBUS stencil from T Holtz, a couple of pink inks (photo shows pink inks, not corals) for ink-blending, a lonely green Copic, a gold Signo gel and a "clear" gel pen, whichs looks more silver sparkle -- easy, right? Nope! While I love the stencil, it is only one, not a set of coordinating so there's A TON of masking.
I added a strip of coral-ish pink card at the bottom, and also layered the pink foiled sentiment on more of the same cardstock. Here's a closer look that shows more sparkle from the two pens ~
Now, will I ever use this stencil again? Probably not, even though it's beautiful. Maybe it's me being lazy, or used to the newer layered stencils, but 3 days is just too much for me. Thus the leaves in green Copic, and the centers and snow in pen. After starting this card, I distinctly remember trying to use it one other time and then figuring out the masking issue...
Since this is an unused stencil until now, it'll also be heading to Darnell's NBUS #82.
Supplies:
TH/Stampers Anon. - Poinsettia stencil
Splb - Glitter Wishes hfp (also NBUS)
I'm so glad you stopped by and thank you for spending some time with me!
Hugs,
TK
