More stencil and glitter fun coming your way


 AND


ARE TEAMING UP THE ENTIRE MONTH OF JUNE TO BRING YOU AN AMAZING CREATIVE COLLABORATION MIXING DREAMWEAVER STENCILS AND ART GLITTER. COME ALONG FOR THE RIDE...WE PROMISE IT WILL BE A SPARKLING ONE!

Visit the Art Glitter blog and the Dream It Up! blog for fabulous inspiration from both talented design teams. We are encouraging all of you to play along with the challenge of creating with Dreamweaver Stencils and Art Glitter*, preferably using the Double-Glitter Technique with a wedding theme. Just link your creation to the Mr. Linky on the Dream It Up! blog, or email pics to lynell@dreamweaverstencils.com, for an opportunity to win one of four fabulous glitter and stencil prize packages. One winner will be chosen each week. (US and Canada only, please).



Are you ready for more glittery stencil fun?  
 
 
  This stencil, LM266 Cat Watch, is one of my all-time favorites and it's perfect for the double glitter technique.  Here's what to do:  Adhere one side of the double-sided mounting paper (MPDS) to card stock, leaving the protective covering on the top side until you are ready to position your stencil.   Rub the back side of the Cat Watch stencil with Handmade Hawaiian Coconut Soap (DHHS), making sure to cover the entire stencil.  This will keep the stencil from making a tight bond with the adhesive.  Carefully brush the soap "crumbs" from the stencil openings, making sure not to bend the stencil.  Remove the protective paper from the double sided mounting paper and position your stencil, soap side down.
 
Apply Art Glitter's #507 Black Wing microfine opaque glitter and rub in with your finger.  Remove excess and return to jar.  Place the glittered image, stencil side down, on a flat surface and begin removing the card stock.  Be sure to keep the stencil flat against your work surface, moving or "walking" your fingers along the stencil as you peel back the card stock so that the stencil always remains flat and does not bend.  Apply #86 Angel Dust to the exposed areas and rub in with your finger.  Trim the image and set it aside.
 
The sentiment is from LG741 Kitty Words.  Follow the steps above for the double glitter technique.   Trim the sentiment and you're ready to assemble your card.  I you'd like to see this technique in action, Lynell has a great video here.   Check it out!
