Simon Says Stamp has introduced stencils into their line, and the stencils from the Holiday Release are SUCH FUN!! My card was made with the HO HO HO stencil. I sponged the stencil with ink...and then tried a new technique...using embossing paste! Embossing paste looks like a thick glue. HERE is a video I watched, in case you should be interested. You apply it with a knife right over your stenciled ink...lift the stencil and let it dry...usually a couple hours...what's REALLY cool, it gives shine and dimension to stenciling....actually made the letters darker and show brighter than just plain stenciled, easy and fun. After the paste dried, I cut the words out and popped up on card. The card measures 4 1/4 x 6. Thought the black reminded me more of Santa than the original green card that I had these on...but could see these on a variety of colored backgrounds. FUN!!! Thanks for visiting me today!!
