Just a quick post to share a card I have made featuring embossing paste and stencil. I have had this Dreamweaver crows stencil forever and have just got some glossy black embossing paste which I thought would work well with it:
I inked the card base with some sunset colours fading out towards the bottom and embossed the birds across the top. The glossy black really pops against the sky. A sentiment from Altenew finishes the design.
I will link up this card at Less Is More's stencils challenge, AAA Cards stencils/embossing challenge and at Simon's Wednesday Challenge to use favourite products/techniques.
Thanks for stopping by, I hope you are having a great week!
