It's the 15th, and time for a little mid-month inspiration!
Today I have a sweet holiday card created with the help of the Flourish Maker stencil from @A Colorful Life Designs. There are several different components to this stencil, making it easy to add that perfect touch to a design - and it's on sale for $4 till the 22. AND - if you use my coupon code 𝘾𝙝𝙧𝙞𝙨𝙁𝙖𝙣10 , you can save even more! by @writtenininkpaper

Snow-covered hills, the elegance of evergreens in the fields, flakes drifting down silently - these are common sights in the winter where I live.
Whimsical Trees (from @A Colorful Life Designs) takes these three elements and combines them in a stencil that's pure fun - and easily adaptable to different styles.
Have a look at the blog to see how I achieved this look.

Some products fit together so beautifully it seems they were meant to be: that's the case with the two stencils I used for today's card. I paired the fun and fabulous (and new this month) Mid Century Candles with the previously released Dotted Wreath for a card with a timeless design. Both are from @A Colorful Life Designs, and both will be pulled out for use frequently!

I love the fun background (by @Woodware) on this card . The star of the card is from @A Colorful Life Designs - sadly, no longer available but still awesome.

One of my favourites from the @Colorful Life Designs October release is Mid Century Christmas Tree. This stencil is blissful for me - I've used a fun colour combo as a nod to the awesome designs in the 60s. I added a sentiment from @Creative Expressions that worked with the mood, and some spatter - just that quickly the card was done.

The fun repeating pattern in the Mid Century Atomic Strands stencil (from @A Colorful Life Designs) was teasing me - " bet you can't use me for a Christmas card!" ... and it kept at it until I sat down and had a play. And I LOVE IT!. The drama of the black and gold, the luxe touch of the embossed silver sentiment on top.
Challenge accepted - and I think - conquered!

When I first saw the Pumpkins and Bows stencil from A Colorful Life Designs, I thought
"Hmm , I wonder if this could be made to work for Christmas?"
So I sat down to have a play - and it turns out that the answer is yes!
