It Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas

Good Morning

I had fun playing with this stencil from A Colorful Life Designs called

Iron Cross

A bit of inking and some embellishments, made for a happy feeling holiday card.

So, here's what I did to create my card.

• I placed the Iron Cross stencil over a piece of white cardstock and inked it up with some Rustic Wilderness Distress Oxide ink.  This stencil is a 3 x 6" stencil, not as wide as other stencils and great if you want to just create a border or ink portions of your project.
• I lifted the stencil off and turned it sideways across the middle of my panel and matched the pattern up.  I inked with the same green then splattered the whole panel with my white Posca pen.
• I glued the stenciled card front onto a piece of dark green cardstock, then onto an A2 sized white card base.
• I added the embellishments with foam tape to finish off my card.

Here is the stencil I used:
