I had a very lazy day yesterday, I was going to do so much but ended up reading and watching TV all day then feeling guilty. I don't intend repeating that today so I must get my skates on.
This card I would like to enter for Crafty Ann's challenge "What's new pussycat". The stencil that I have used I have had for a few months but I have never used it. Unfortunately, as usual, the lovely sparkle and colour of the glitter don't show up in the photograph even with scanning.
I have used plain black card for the base. For the image I have used a Dreamweaver stencil, stencilling paste and Pee Wee glitters onto black card. I have matted and layered with Mauve card to pick out the colour of the fuchsia and matted that onto silver card. The sentiment is a stamp that I have had for ages and can't remember the designer. I have stamped and embossed it with mauve embossing powder and matted and layered with mauve and silver card. The image and the sentiment have been mounted using foam pads and I have finished the card with a ribbon from my stash.
This is absolutely lovely, Trish. You make some beautiful cards with stencils.

Thanks for visiting and commenting on my latest LOTV card. I was sooooo lucky to win twelve of their stamps recently. It will take me a while to try them all out. Your fuchsia card is beautiful, they are my Mum's favourite flowers. Lovely sentiment too. I have never heard of stencilling paste so I will go and find out what that is now. Marie x
