Color Hues
I hadn't yet opened my Taylored Expressions Create in Quads Mistletoe stencils and I wanted to enter the Blue and Purple challenge at Color Hues. 
I got this stencil set partly because I thought it could be used year round. I wanted the all over background panel design, so just used those sections of the stencils. The Altenew inks are Caribbean Sky, Persian Blue, Wisteria and Ultraviolet. I added some white details with a fine tip Posca marker. The fun die was a freebie from Scrapbook.com. I inked with the 2 lighter colors and added the darker ones on the edges. I covered the whole diecut with Versamark and embossed in Hero Arts Sparkle powder--so beautiful in person! The card needed something, so I made the white layered flowers from Poppystamps Potpourri Flower Set. The tiny pearls keep the card flat enough for one stamp and it's already in the mail. Now I can't wait to use the full stencils for a start on next year's Christmas cards. I'm also entering Inkspirational.
