We have a challenge in our Yahoo! group this month of using a brass stencil in some way. I chose to use glitter.
The stencil I used is from Stencilabilities. The technique I used is this: You soap up the stencil so it doesn't stick permanently, but you use double-sided sticky paper to adhere the stencil to a piece of cardstock. Then you use glitter (I used my multi-pack of Martha Stewart glitter) and carefully use it to "color" your stencil. When finished, you remove the stencil and sprinkle clear glitter over the rest. I matted this piece with some green shimmery cardstock and mounted on foam squares. The two different patterned papers are both from a Green Matstack from Die Cuts With a View. The sentiment is a rub-on from Stampin' Up!
Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you'll come back and visit again soon!

This is very Beautiful Lynette X
Very very pretty!
This is a fun technique. I need to do it again. Yours turned out great!
ohhh that looks so cool! Gonna have to try that (although I hate glitter mess, I LOVE the look!)
This sounds terribly tricky Lynette. It turned out amazing. If I tried this ....it would be a mess not gorgeous like yours.
Oh you know I love sparkle! Fabulous card!
Would have never thought to do it that way.. What a great technique.. This is beautiful.
I think I might still have some brass stencils around here somewhere... The glitter is awesome!
What a fantastic idea! I have some brass stencils and I will have to have a go at this technique! I love this card! Great job and thanks for sharing the technique you used!
