Good morning! I'm back with another stenciled Christmas card to share with you today. This time I've used the beautiful Poinsettia Bling stencil from A Colorful Life Designs. Isn't that gorgeous? I stenciled it with a dark red ink onto the dark red paper, but I wanted a little extra oomph. So I pulled out my iridescent medium and a sponge and very lightly sponged over the inked areas on the stencil. You can see the shimmer in the close up picture below.
Once the shimmery medium dried, I wanted some pearls on the little dots, so I used Antique Rose Nuvo Crystal Drops for that 3D effect. For the sentiment, I looked through all my Christmas stamps and I found this swirly sentiment that echoed the beautiful swirls in the stencil (Snowflake Serenade set from Papertrey Ink). I stamped it with the same dark red ink and then I dabbed the iridescent medium over the stamp while it was in the MISTI and went over the sentiment again. It's so shimmery and festive!
