Hey,
Well it is almost Christmas, my cards left a long time ago and have been slowly landing with their new owners!
Today's cards are accidentally gorgeous!!
I had stamped and masked off the frame with the banner and added the stenciled dots. Then I coloured and fussy cut the cat and dog to sit in each frame.
I decided that it all looked a bit bland and flat...
Cue the translucent paste. I put the frame/banner mask back down and the stencil and applied the paste through the stencil. I was worried that I was going to smudge the dots, but it was fine and once the paste dried, the dots ended up with this amazing shine. Yay!
Now I feel like a genius, even though it was a random idea and I was crapping myself a bit as I did it, worried I might ruin my perfectly fine card because I was a brat!
Oh and the wonderful set is 'Seasons Greetings' by Lil Inker Designs and the stencil is by Clearly Besotted.

You should feel like a genius, Claire! And definitely you are a risk-taker! I'm so glad it worked for you. The sheen on the colorful dots really does elevate your already fabulous design! Of course you know I love those critters!! Happy Holiday Hugs, Darnell
