I have two more cards for you using the card sketch #34.

So, I had a lot of hot foiled leaves left over from a class, so I sat down to try to use them. My mind went immediately to creating a wreath. This is what I came up with and I'm not too sure the idea came through like I thought it would. What do you think? I love how all the different products came together to make this card, even if the wreath doesn't look quite right.

Lustrous Leaves Hot Foil dies #170559, Autumn Opulence DSP #168336, 

Softly Woven EF #168466, Elegant Leaves stamp set (greeting) #168300 &

Calypso Coral Copper Border ribbon #168444

The next card was a bonus card as I've been hot foiling using different dies and just hadn't gotten to creating a card with the different pieces. If you've seen me at Christmas time, you've seen me wearing Black & Red Buffalo Check, because it just says Christmas to me, but I'm not a traditional Red & Green Christmas kind of gal either. Anyway, I just LOVE the Buffalo Check hot foil die! This card is SO shiny and pretty in person! I used white paint spatters on the trees and snowflake embossed piece to add a little more white to the card in hopes that it would lighten up the entire card a little bit.

Buffalo Check hot foil die #170590, Magical Christmas hot foil dies #170592,

Holly Jolly Branches dies #168279, Christmas Crew stamp set (snow hills) #168374

Dreamy Snowflake Hybrid Embossing Folder #168384

Here we go! I think Card Sketch #34 will be one of those sketches that become a classic. You can use lots of things with this sketch. Think designer series paper, embossing folders, dies or stencils. This sketch leaves lots of room to create a focal point on the card with an accent strip. 

 

Stenciling is one of my favorite techniques to create beautiful images and the Painted Pumpkins bundle stenciled are just amazing! (#168439) I was playing with them the other day and I kept thinking there has to be a better way to make lining up the stencils easier. Check out what I came up.

 I pulled out my Stampin' Positioner tool! Remove the top plate and use the base to hold you stencils in place with out the hassle of tape or temporary adhesive. Simply use the center "triangle" and pegs along with the magnets to hold the paper and the stencils. The only thing you'll need to do is figure out which way you want to lay your stencils! If the paper slips a little bit, it's super easy to push it back into place and continue stenciling. 

Add paper to the positioner tool.

Add the first stencil and the magnets. Add ink.

Continue with the rest of the stencils until you have created the full image. 

You might get a little ink on the pegs, but they can be easily wipe off.

I hope this tip will help you to enjoy stenciling and if you try it, I'd love to hear how it worked for you.

 It's an exciting day in my craft room. My assistant Spike & his shy brother Goodwin are celebrating their 10th birthday! These two have quite a story of how they litterly dropped into our lives on a stormy rainy night, so it's amazing they even survived! Happy Birthday Boys!
