Since the Dream Team has a free week once again, I thought that I would showcase and handful of similar cards. These cards were all done using
Dreamweaver Stencil's new holiday releases this year. They feature the
Nativity and the
Isaiah scripture background in various techniques. For the first card, I stenciled the scripture background, ran it through the Big Shot with the
Cathedral Window stencil for texture, and inked around the edges. This was adhered to the card. The Rejoice stencil was ink-stenciled, curled and inked before adding to the card. The focal piece is the
Nativity which I first paste-embossed in
black...let dry...
Crackle pasted it...let dry...and stenciled antique colors of inks over the top.
The second card features the
Nativity distress-foiled (crumple the foil before adhering), plus a collaged background of the
Fleur de Lis embossed on metallic cardstock, the
Holly Flourish and the
Angel stencils inked on the background. The sentiment is the reverse portion of the Peace portion of the
Comfort Words stencil foiled.
The third card features the
Nativity once again, foiled once again, but a combination of gold and copper foils. The
background was once again ink-stenciled and distressed around the edges. The
sentiment is the foil piece that created the reverse for the second card.

These cards are a great example of how you can pull out several stencils and products to mix and match...never wasting any of the bits and pieces as you go! Check out what the rest of the team have done with their free week, as well as the
