Ornament using Dreamweaver Stencils








I had a great day yesterday and hope you all had a great Thanksgiving as well. So today I decided to try this ornament I had in my head. I started by using my Nestabilities Heirloom Ornament and I cut out 3 of the largest ornament. Then using my Sm. Snowflake (LS 26) stencil I stenciled snowflakes on each of the 3 ornaments that I had cut out. After I had cut out the ornaments I used my Score-it to score each ornament down the middle (this really helps when you go to put the ornament together). To get the snowflakes to be lavender I used regular embossing paste and mixed in some purple satin Metallic F/X. Once the snowflakes were pasted I sprinkled some crystal glitter onto them. Then after the paste was dry I carefully put the ornament together.

Thursday'sDream Scheme's


Our challenge for this Thursday's Dream Scheme was to create a card using non traditional holiday colors. This was a great challenge for me because while I love red and green I also like to be different. To start my card I stenciled the flourish (LG713), onto my paper using Ranger

Distress ink, Dusty Concord. Then leaving the stencil in place I the used transclucent paste over the top. Next I stenciled the sm. snowflake (LS26) on white paper using regular embossing paste that was tinted with Metallic F/X Glacier Blue. I stenciled Season's Greetings (LS 91) using Momento Bahama Blue. I layered the patterned paper onto purple cardstock then using mounting tape I popped up the snowflakes that I punched with a circle punch. I hope you have a great time checking out the Dream Team blogs to see what everyone else has come up with.
