Good Morning
When I saw this new stencil for August from A Colorful Life Designs, I thought Christmas.
And since it's never too soon to start on our holiday cards meet the new
This stencil has so many possibilities.
So, here's what I did to create my card.
- I began by putting a piece of white cardstock onto my Make Art Station and put the Changing Triangles stencil over my paper.
- I inked it up with some Cracked Pistachio and some Rustic Wilderness Distress Oxide ink.
- I splattered the panel with my white Posca pen and set aside to dry.
- Next, I inked up another panel exactly the same way as I wanted to cut up the triangles for my design.
- While that dried, I stamped and die cut the sentiment using some more of the Rustic Wilderness DOX ink.
- I cut the stenciled panels up to create the design. I wanted a large tree in the middle to represent Christmas tree.
- I glued the cut pieces onto a piece of white cardstock, then onto a piece of dark green and then finally onto an A2 sized card base.
- I use some foam tape to pop the sentiment over the bottom and then found this silver snowflake in my stash to add to the top of the tree.

Such a clever way to use the stencil, you have great insight on how to use each stencil, they are fabulous. x
Your green triangles remind me of Christmas trees! Terrific card, Karen. Thanks for playing along at Just Us Girls!
That stencil is a neat one and I love your interpretation of trees with it. Thanks for sharing with us at both Cut It Up and MTTC :)
A fantastic card with a different point of view to celebrate the holidays. That snowflake is the perfect decoration for it. Thanks for joining us at My Time To Craft. Hugs, María.
