I wanted to use my Viva Decor and I am so happy I did. I don't like to use my expensive craft mat to do mixes so I use a freezer bag, and it washes nicely. Anyway, I dug a bit of the paste out and mushed it around, then spritzed with a small amount of water until it looked okay, and then sponged it on the stencil. Towards the end I started adding more water getting the lighter reds. IRL it is so pretty. The bee I got from www.clairmatthews.com in 2014. I coloured it with the TH inks and cut out wings from the vellum and glued on using glossy accents - they sit up so pretty. On the back of the vellum I have the gold Viva put on very lightly with no water mixed in. Typically me, I added some sequins to finish. Thanks for looking ...

Well, we all seem to be in agreement that this is simply GORGEOUS! The bee is the best I've ever seen (well, except for a real bee), and the background is amazing.
