Stenciling With Mayra: Bold Poinsettias

Hello everyone! Happy Tuesday. Mayra here with you today. I have another fun stenciling project to share with you. Since we are already in November (can you believe it?!), I chose to create a Christmas themed card.

I began by coloring the beautiful poinsettias from the Poinsettias stamp set. I used Copic markers to color them in. I used R93, R05, R17, and R46. For the leaves, I used YG11, YG63, G94, and YG99. 

Next, I die cut a panel for my card using the stitched rectangle from the Stitched Notes die set. I then added a bit of adhesive to the back of the die-cut panel and adhered it to my craft surface. Then, I placed the lovely Christmas Background stencil where I wanted it to be and added a bit of post-it tape to help hold it in place. Next, I added the colors I would be using. I used Distress Inks, in the colors Barn Door, and Aged Mahogony. I love the tone on tone effect. 

To finish my card, I heat embossed the ‘Thinking Of You’ sentiment from the Bee Friends stamp set on to a strip of vellum. Then, I adhered that to the panel. I then added the poinsettias and my card was done. It was a fun project to create. 

Thank you very much for taking the time to stop by. I hope you each have a wonderful and blessed day.
