I took advantage of (too) many Black Friday crafty sales but put a few of my new goodies to use right away. (Like my justification?) One of the first things I wanted to try was a layered poinsettia set from Simon Says Stamp. I used three different color combinations with this one stencil resulting in completely different holiday feels on four different cards.
and my personal favorite....
I used dye inks on the white cards and Distress Oxides on the black one. After completing the stenciling I stamped over top of each panel using a crackle background with white pigment ink. It tends to just soften the overall look, something I prefer. I used different die and stamp sets for the sentiments and added pearls for a finishing touch. These will come in very handy next year.
