My Friend the Dahlia
Added to Favorite

Photo Details
Poster: lovinpaper

 I have had this stencil for a year and never used it, till today. I started with using stencil A and embossed it using my Big Shot Plus. I set it up for embossing, place one cutting mat first, then a rubber mat (labeled embossing), my paper and stencil, then a cutting plate on top and it embossed. It didn't emboss like an embossing folder, but it added a bit of texture and the stencil went easily in the correct place.

I used Petal Pink for each flower, Soft Sea Foam for the leaves, and Pool Party for the background spaces. Then I placed stencil B, the very detailed portion over the inked piece, and added the detail with Slate, which is very much like SU Basic Gray. I once used Basic Gray ink refill to ink my slate cube.

I found a very old Hero Arts set with this greeting; it fit perfectly on the strip of white paper that was next to my paper trimmer.

The verse for the Crafter's of Faith challenge is: 2 Corinthians 5:17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!
Challenge: Use something new, a new technique, an old product in a new way, or any way you wish to interpret the scripture. I was thinking since it is a New Year to focus on new.

As I said, my new is the stencil set that has not been used. My new technique is to emboss the stencil. I am adding this to the USEIT2025 since the greeting is from a retired set; it is dated 2009 and is long retired.

This will be added to the Crazy is our fame - Stencils are our Game challenge: https://stencilfun.blogspot.com/2025...challenge

This is gorgeous! I love that it is embossing and layered stenciling and the challenge colors are perfect for it. The sentiment is cool too. I LOVE this. Hugz

Fantastic stenciling. I really like your tip of doing the embossing to help align the layers of stencils. Beautifully done in the challenge colors. It all fits for the January challenge for something new. Well done, Lisa. Great card!

Wow. This is stunning. You are very clever to create this beauty with a stencil and have it fit into the colour challenge. This stencil waited patiently for a year to come out of hiding.0
