Product Review Day!: Stencils and Embossing Paste

Good Morning..Teresa here from Fresh and Renewed! I am going to share how to use embossing paste and a stencil today. Come join in the fun!

Tip: Make sure you wash your stencil and tools immediately after using. It does dry quickly.

I am working on making a variety of cards to send to my daughter to use as generic cards when she needs to send one out. She recently told me "with such a crafty mother, I should not have to buy cards that I really don't like anyhow." LOL! Then proceeded to ask, "You wouldn't mind making me some cards would you?" Well what's a mother to do except get busy making cards? So here is my first attempt at using embossing paste and stencils. I think I could really get into this!

First here are my supplies I used:

 





Then I applied the paste on the stencil...so very sorry I forgot to take a picture of applying the paste.

Here is the paste after I applied the silver embossing powder.

 

 

And the final card.

Thank you so much for joining me today. All in all the embossing paste and stencil technique is super! I really like it and will continue to build my stencil and paste collection. In fact the paste was not even mine, I borrowed it from a friend cause I really wanted to try this technique.



Hope you have a blessed day and thanks for stopping by, Teresa
