Hello, it's Verity with another video and blog post as a Creative team member for WOW! Have you shopped the new release yet? I've created this big beautiful Snowflake stencil which also comes with the coordinating mask as well. So I'm showing you how to create 3 looks with one stencil set and these elegant Christmas cards are so easy to make, you could even gift them as sets in time for the season!

3 looks with one stencil set written Tutorial:
Add ink over the mask:
For this first card, spray Pixie spray (a temporary adhesive) to one side of the Snowflake stencil mask and adhere to a white card base. You can use other methods to keep it in place if you don't have Pixie spray.
Next, blend off the mask using a blending brush and Tranquil ink from Catherine Pooler Designs. Make sure you go over all the design and apply more ink towards the middle for a soft halo effect.
In addition, add Cove Blue ink more towards the middle of the Snowflake stencil mask. Remove the stencil to reveal the white negative Snowflake.
To add to the winter feel, splatter gold and white metallic paint from the Altenew Metallic Pan set over the panel.
Add glitter over the mask:
For this second card, we are using the Snowflake stencil mask again but this time with some mixed media. Once more, temporarily adhere the Snowflake mask down onto a white card panel.
On a non-porous surface, mix Gold Dust Essential Sparkles into a translucent texture paste with a spatula.
Slowly apply the glitter paste over the mask taking care around the fronds of the snowflake. As you get towards the bottom of the snowflake, drag the paste down for a more organic finish.
Remove the mask and clean over the paste. Leave the panel to dry and then adhere to a white cardbase.
Finish the card off with a gold heat embossed sentiment onto black card. This sentiment comes from the Peave, Love & Joy stamp set.
Combing the techniques with the stencil set:
Temporarily adhere the Snowflake stencil Mask down onto a white card panel. Ink blend over the mask like we did for the first card.
Remove the mask and now positioned the Snowflake stencil over the negative snowflake on the cardbase. I find the Wendy Vecchi Make Art Stay-tion works well in keeping stencils in place.
Once more, mix some translucent paste with Gold Dust Essential sparkles and apply through the stencil.
Remove the stencil and clean before the paste has a chance to dry. Finish this last card off with some gold heat embossed sentiments on black card using the Christmas Sentiment stamp set.
