Dreamweaver Blog Hop- Day 1

Yes! It's that time of year again! The time when we inspire crafters on both sides of the "pond" with a mix of both Dreamweaver and Woodware UK* products for the holidays! Six days, SIX, of beautiful, elegant, merry, cute, artsy, and craftsy projects to have you heading out to your local stores or internet sites to buy these goodies immediately!

Of course, there will be prizes as well. Three prize packages will be given to three commenters during this week's posts on the team's blogs, including five stencils and one nested die set. You can have an opportunity to win these goodies by leaving some holiday sweetness for each team member posting each day, to be one of the three winners for the week. Here are the team members that are inspiring you today:

Here's my first contribution to Blog hop week

 

Here we have the "double glitter technique" which is a lot of fun & produces some great results. I've used LX7016 Season of Joy. Cut a piece of card & a piece of double sized adhesive sheet to approximately the same size as the stencil. Peel off one side of the sheet & attach to the card. Use a natural soap to rub over the back of the stencil km in -this makes it easier to remove from the sticky sheet. Peel off the other side from the sheet & place the stencil over the top. Add ultra fine gold glitter & shake off excess. Carefully remove the stencil & cover the remaining sticky surface with Crystal glitter. Replace the clean stencil & add some colour using inkpads & a 1/8" stencil brush.Trim & layer onto dark blue card & attach to a 5" x 7" card blank. I've added some punched gold holly leaves using Woodware's 1" holly punch & some 5mm Glitterdomes.
