Christmas Baubles

I thought I would share a Christmas card with you today.  Pretty simple to make with a stencil and some sparkle medium, though I did mask off each area to make the colour change (which was a bit fiddly in places) and had to wait for each colour to dry before I could do the next - so definitely not the quickest card!

I am adding this card to the following:
Imagination Crafts Challenge Blog - October Anything Goes

Materials Used:
Imagination Crafts - Christmas Holly stencil, White Christmas panel card, Sparkle Medium in champagne, hunter green and bright red
Craftwork Cards - sentiment, DL card, pale gold card
Brother Scan N Cut - to cut a mat for the sentiment
