This is another card done with a brass stencil and sponging, this time using white embossing paste and glitter.
I attached the stencil onto Soft Sky cardstock with removable tape and stenciled just the trees with Old Olive ink and a sponge dauber, masking off the other areas of the stencil. Then I removed the stencil and cleaned the ink off, setting it aside until later.
I carefully sponged around the stenciled image with the sponge dauber and Old Olive ink to fill out the tree shapes.
After the ink dried, I reattached the brass stencil, lining it up over the stenciled image. Using a palette knife, I applied Dreamweaver White Embossing Paste over the entire image and then covered it with DD glitter while it was still wet.
After allowing it to dry for about an hour, I colored the star with the So Saffron marker and sponged on some Craft Whisper White ink below the trees.
I trimmed the image and layered it onto Blue Bayou and Naturals White cardstock, and popped it up with dimensionals.
NOTE: If the green ink shows through the embossing paste a little, just color it with the white gel pen.
