I am over at A Blog Named Hero today with a card inspired by my favourite post from this year. It will be no surprise that it involves stencils....
Head over to ABNH to see who inspired me....
I will also enter this card in to the SSS Flickr Challenge #7 (my third) which is about stencils.
While I am playing with stencils and embossing paste here is a Christmas card made with a lovely stencil from Clarity Stamp:
I used white embossing paste on kraft, coloured the little heart in red pen and added some glossy accents. A bit of white ink around the edges to soften the kraft. I like the rustic/Nordic look of this design - do you?
I will link up at Simon Says Stamp's Wednesday Challenge to make Christmas/holiday cards.
I promise to put away my stencils for my next cards! Thanks for stopping by :)

Two gorgeous cards, Sarah! I love how you chose white embossing paste on Kraft and the little red heart is so charming! I also love your stenciled balloon and your embossed background on this card is fabulous! Off to check out your post at ABNH :)
