DREAMing and SCHEMEing of a White Christmas!


 It's Thursday so that means it's Dreamweaver Stencil's Dream Schemes again! Another opportunity to be wowed by our wonderful team, and another opportunity to play along and show us your stuff! Be sure to check out all the gals amazingness (is that a word? It is now!) and leave them some love, before hopping over to the Dreamweaver Stencil's "Dream It Up!" blog for more inspiration. Click on "Mr. Linky" there to link up your own creation for us to ooh and aaah over!
For my post today, I'm showing off the three porcelain ornaments that I decorated using Dreamweaver Stencils, embossing paste, and lots of glitter! The first uses a ornament shaped ornament, so of course, I used the Oval Ornament stencil! I paste embossed with the gorgeous Glossy Blue Paste, poured blue glitter over the surface, and set aside to dry. Once dry, I replaced the stencil over the ornament before placing the Gothic Snowflake over the top and paste-embossing with white paste and a generous coating of Crystal glitter. When this layer
was dry, I embellished with pearl stickers, ribbon, and jumbo snowflake sequins. The second ornament was a stocking shape, and since I have a thing for argyle socks, I used the Diamonds stencil with the Glossy Red Paste before pouring on the red glitter and setting aside to dry. Then I placed the Holly Flourish stencil over the top and stenciled a portion of that using Glossy Green paste and green glitter. Once all of this was dry, I applied a thick frothy coating of white paste to the top of the stocking, and covered with a mixture of white flock and crystal glitter. This ornament was embellished with a cheery plaid bow. The final ornament was a snowflake shape. For this one I paste embossed the Flakes Background in white before sprinkling with glitter and setting aside to dry. Then I
paste embossed the Gothic Snowflake in Glossy Blue and added the blue glitter again. Once dry, I embellished with ribbon and rhinestone stickers. I seriously had so much fun making these, and they look gorgeous on my tree. I intended them to be gifts for friends, but now...I don't know...I just may keep them for myself! So, now you've seen what fun I've been having with Dreamweaver Stencils, now you need to go visit the rest of the team as listed at right, create your own, and link your post to the Dream It up blog via "Mr. Linky".

WOW Pam these are amazing. I really never thought about using my stencils on porcelian. I will have to go into the black abyss as my daughter calls the garage and find my porcelian and get to work.
