I decided it was time I broke out my Waffle Flower Postal Collage die and matching stencils to play along with the latest sketch at AAA Cards. I fell in love with these when they were first released and have been slowly collecting all sorts of sets but until today I haven't actually used them. Now I have I'm kicking myself for waiting so long, gosh they are super fun!!! I'll also enter my card into the current SSS Instagram challenge to make a Holiday-themed project as well and Inkspirational Challenge to "layer it".
To play along with the sketch I've used the small square in the top left hand corner of the die 3 times, using 2 different stencil sets, one image (the reindeer) I had to mask of 2 of the edges as it is supposed to be stenciled into a bigger square. I've tried to only stick to a few colours so it wasn't too busy but have added some stencil paste to 2 of the images the gold looks amazing IRL and my photography hints at it's glory; the Stardust Butter snow is subtle but quite sparkly IRL too.
