Hi Christine. Wowzer a beautiful post full of amazing creativity...
Monte is fine now, I watched him today while outside and he is cautious of what he drinks, had a bucked of soapy water there and he sniffed and walked away....lesson learnt! xx

Love the soft stencilling - beautiful colours on the ribbons/bows and ornaments. Great choices of images for inside the ornaments.

Wow, these are gorgeous! I’ve never heard of these stencils but no doubt I’ll be shopping for some. I love what you did with that ornament- just so perfectly sponged and blended in muted colors. I also love the way you created a glow around the images in the ornaments. Looks like I’ll be shopping again!

This is gorgeous Christine and I love your branch with the robin silhouette which goes beautifully within it, and your two other little images look great too. x

I absolutely love these. They are so gorgeous. I ran right over and bought the stencil. I was thinking of printing my image and then stenciling over. It will save on buying stamps. Thank you for the beautiful idea!

Wowie, these are gorgeous! I look at stencils, but then I'm not sure what I'd do with them. You, on the other hand, knew exactly what to do with this! I'm stunned by the awesomeness!
