The toppings for this challenge is Stencils
But if you are not a toppings kind of person, Just make it a birthday card and that will work too!
Here is my card for your inspiration.
I wanted to do something different with stencils and I found an interesting idea on Pinterest. HERE This technique used embossing paste with a stencil and then you colored it after it was dry. I really liked the look. I kept the colors soft using Distressed inks in Tumbled Glass, Spun Sugar, and Shaded Lilac. The stencil used here is Gina K Designs Snowflake Mandella, along with a die from Die Namices called Stitch Round Rectangle
A little closer look.
For another more masculine look, I did the same technique but sprinkled embossing powder on the dried panel. ( I would recommend that you do this before it dried) Colored the whole panel with Distressed ink in Vintage Photo and added some glitter glue. It has a masculine rustic look and liked it enough to share it here. It makes for a card with lots of texture. I used a stencil from Simon Says called Tumbling Leaves and Penny Black Antique Frames die.
