It is Monday - time to show some love for your old supplies. I am going to combine Oldie Moldie Monday with the current challenge at 52 Christmas Card Throwdown. The challenge this week is technique but more specifically to use a stencil.
I have a large assortment of stencils. Many times I try the stencil out and then the image goes in a box to be created with later. Needless to say I have a large box with "created with later" images. This snowflake stencil is one of them. It may be a Gina K Stencil.
Here is the snowflake all stenciled in beautiful blue colors. I am guessing it is oxide inks. I made it a long time ago. It is a beautiful stencil. It is very large. I decided to make two mini slimline cards out of this large snowflake. I have a die for mini slimline cards so used that to make my snowflake panels.
I found some cardstock that worked well for the mat of the snowflake. I also found this glitter paper which I covered the front of the card base with. I have a very large collection of snowflake dies and cut some out of the same color cardstock I used for the mat. I splattered the card with irridescent ink and added some bling to the middle of the snowflakes. A simple greeting completed the card. I now have two more holiday cards completed.
Remember to show some love for your old supplies. They still make wonderful cards.

Aren't you clever? That's a perfect twofer use of that big stencil and so pretty made up for the card. xoxo
