Dream Scheme Thursday

Welcome to another Dreamweaver Stencils Dream Scheme Thursday challenge!  This week is another designer's  choice, so I am sharing a design I did for Lynell using the new Maple Branch (LJ906) stencil.  It is a beautiful stencil that will be great for many occasions.  Here's my design:

This was done using the double glitter technique.  It's easy to do if you know the steps.  Start by cutting a piece of cardstock the same size as the stencil.  Cut a piece of the Dreamweaver Double-sided mounting paper the same size as the cardstock. Adhere the mounting paper to the cardstock, burnish it well. Remove the second piece of release paper to expose the sticky paper, set aside.  Soap the back of your stencil with Dreamweaver's Coconut Soap, brushing away all flakes that cling to the openings, and any big flakes on the stencil itself.  Carefully place the stencil soap side down onto the sticky paper and press gently all around the stencil.  Sprinkle the entire image with Art Glitter microfine Rock Moss glitter and tap off all excess glitter. With the stencil still in place, use small stencil brushes and inks to add additional color to the leaves and branches. Don't forget to use your Picasso (LL332) to help create some veins in the leaves. Place the glittered image face down on a clean paper towel and gently peel off the sticky paper from the stencil, being careful to keep the stencil flat on your work surface. Sprinkle the background with Crystal ultrafine glitter, and mount on a card.
