Carols for Christmas Bundle

The Carols for Christmas bundle is a sneak peek set that will be in the Holiday catalog.  If you are one of my customers, you should be receiving your catalog soon.  I love the set, especially some of the dies.  I used the dies and the new embossing paste on several of the cards and use the dies to make a stencil.

About the stencil, I tried several different methods and some worked better than others.  The window sheets were too thick, regular cards stock and vellum fell apart.  I used the thin plastic film that is on top of the photopolymer stamps set and it was too flimsy.  I tried making one stencil to cover my paper completely and it was too hard to manipulate with the various materials.   I finally used the glossy paper and just cut one stencil for each of the trees.  I moved those stencils around the paper and iced it with the embossing paste.  It was the easiest method and produced the best result.  Below is the die set.
