Happy Birthday- Stencil Stacking and Embossing in Two Ways

Hi Artsy Friends,

After a long day’s work, I got rid of the exhaustion and made this card because I was so inspired by Nicole Watt’s Stencils Unleashed online class available at Altenew Academy. Thanks, Nicole.

 

This card is a combination of the techniques covered in Day 3 and 4. In addition, I applied Tim Holtz’s Stickles Glitter Gel Solar Flare over the flower center on the gold-embossed flower silhouette. Boy, can you see the tiny golden stars mixed with the golden glitters? 

It’s so gorgeous and I am absolutely happy about the end result. Hope you like it too. Thanks for stopping by and wish you a great day ahead.

Hi Artsy Friends,

It’s super great news that Happy Little Stampers (HLS) resumes its monthly challenges after the 6-month break. It’s even exciting that HLS opens up a new challenge – Stencil Challenge, and I am in the Design Team. Yay.

The January Challenge Theme is Anything Goes. 

 

For Challenge Rules and other DT’s inspirations, please check out the Challenge Blog. I’m sure the Theme is super easy, so please do join us for the fun.

The following is how I made my card. I apologize that I finished my card in one go that I forgot to take step-by step demonstration photos. Hope my card is inspirational to you. Thanks for stopping by and wish you a great day ahead.
