ARTplorations Stencil Blog Hop

Hi friends! Today I have two simple and clean Christmas cards made for ARTplorations Stencil Blog Hop!

This hop is an one-day event where STAMPlorations ladies feature the 8 stencils designed by Sanna. Sanna's stencils are now in the STAMPlorations store, you can check out this page for more details.

Here're my cards using Christmas Tree 1 and Leaves 2.

For this CAS card, I'm showcasing Christmas Tree 1 stencil. I first applied mowed lawn and peacock feathers distress inks on white cardstock.

Moved the stencil slightly and also drew the tree outlines with black pen. 

Then, I cut the cardstock to isosceles triangle shape and adhered it to kraft card.

I also stamped the sentiment below the tree, so the sentiment looks like tree stem.

To finish off, I added a red star on the top of the tree.

For the second card, I started by putting the stencil on white panel and applying embossing paste.

I also embossed the paste in gold.

Next, I adhered the panel on the center of card with foam for some dimension.

To finish off, I cut the sentiment from Be Jolly Phrase Die.

Thank you for standing by!
