The birch trees are stencilled in embossing glaze. Once that was dry, I blended a mix of blue distress inks for the wintry sky, then spritzed with shimmer mist. I added a single die cut cardinal and an embossed sentiment on vellum. Other than the drying time, a quick and easy card to make!
Any occasion, any style - if your card makes use of a stencil, add it to this month's gallery! For more inspiration, head over to the HLS blog, where my teammates have used stencils in beautiful ways.

what a great idea to use embossing paste for the trees, I am sure it looks dimensional in person - wonderful card
