Free challenge week at
Dreamweaver Stencils. My post is a super simple beginner basic card for spring. The Bazzill cardstock card is run through the Big Shot with the
Sunflowers stencil. (Tip: Spritz back of cardstock with rubbing alcohol for a deep emboss!) I sludge-pasted* the Nestie lacy scallop circle with a mix of
Matte Yellow and
Orange pastes and only one portion of the
Sunflowers stencil. I stamped a tiny bee and appropriate sentiment, added ribbons and you're done! This same card could be created using a wide variety of
Dreamweaver Stencils in the same way. For instance, for the holidays...use the
Snowflakes stencil to emboss the background with just one snowflake paste embossed (sprinkle glitter on the wet paste). Or emboss the background with any of the wonderful jumbo stencils, and use one of the fun small images for your focal piece. Hurry on over to the rest of the team's blogs as listed at right for more dreamy ideas, create your own, and link to the
Dream It Up! blog's Mr. Linky.

Beautiful Pam!!! What a fun way to use orange and yellow paste. Those are the two colors that I never use. I hope you are having a nice time in PHX.
What a "springy" fresh beauty! Thanks for the tip about the spritz of alcohol on the back before embossing. I've never heard that one!
Great job in showing the versatility of the stencils. There's so many ways to use them and so little time!
Very summery Pam! I really like the idea of weaving the ribbons through the loops. Great card.
I love this. No more to say. LOVE
Bold and beautiful! Great work.
