Thanks so much for stopping by!
Today I have a fun card made with a few challenges in mind.
I used Echo Park Magical Plaid Stencil with a Clarity Stencil Brush and Distress Ink to make the background on the card base. I stenciled another panel with Altenew's Layered Dahlia Stencil's A and B with light and dark Hero Arts Shadow Inks, then fussy cut one of the flowers out. I edged it in black and then adhered it to the card base. I added a strip of My Mind's Eye patterned paper to the side, then stamped the sentiment from Concord & 9th "All Year Long" stamp set. Lastly I added lots of Nuvo Jewel drops in lines outlining the white parts of the flower, then added Dazzling Diamond Glitter while it was still wet so it would stick to the Nuvo. Then I had a mess on my hands with the left over glitter, but after it dried, I shook off the extra glitter and used a dryer sheet to get the glitter off the rest of the card. I think it has a very unique look to it and the Nuvo gave it a lot of dimension!
