Hello

That is my greeting on this card for the CAS Stencil challenge this month. I used Viva Glitter Paste through a Dreamweaver metal stencil to create the tree. I also went over the tree trunk and branches with a Copic marker in brown. I mounted on brown card stock to frame it. Just as I finished the paste, the doorbell rang so I wasn't able to get all the glitter paste off the stencil with soap and water. You have to do that quickly.

My heart is heavy for the tragedy in Paris. Such a heart breaking thing to happen. Seeing the people singing and praying is so touching. So thankful they were able to save a lot of artifacts.





Be kind to one another.

I would have never thought to color the paste with a copic so thank you for the inspiration! That's brilliant- so much easier than trying to color all that paste. Love the effects and sparkle on this.

Your tree just shimmers with the beautiful glitter paste you've used Brenda. Love this spring tree with all the pretty green leaves. Great idea to use a brown marker for the branches and trunk! Thanks for sharing with us at CAS Stencil! xx
