Stenciled Birthday Card

I found myself in a bit of a creative rut this month. I only created one card in January and had very few ideas for new cards. In order to get out of this rut I did what everybody tells you to do which is to TRY SOMETHING NEW. And it worked! I've wanted to work with glitter pastes and stencils for a while so I treated myself to a few new products and sat down one Saturday practicing this new technique. It was so much fun. I ended up creating around ten backgrounds that day and felt very inspired. Watch out for some sparkly new cards like this one right here:

50th Birthday Card With Lots Of Shine

This was my first time experimenting with embellishment mousse/paste for a bit of texture on my card. I love the beautiful shine of this particular Nuvo mousse and I can't wait to use the technique again on future cards. I'm also obsessed with the large flower that is part of the Create A Smile Stamps Fun Flowers stamp set. It hasn't left my work desk since it arrived.
