Thursday's Dream Schemes!

It's Thursday and for everyone on the Dreamweaver Design Team, that means it's time to post a new photo for the Thursday Dream Schemes!  This week, I'm sharing a new stencil with you!    Dreamweaver is revealing two new stencils this month, LL3010 is a Heart Tole Wreath and LL3011 has Love Birds on a scroll wreath.

Here's the Brand New Stencil that I received from Dreamweaver, LL3010 the Heart Tole Wreath.




Also for the Dream Schemes this week we were given a sketch to follow for our cards.  Here's the sketch:

I love sketches.  They make life a little easier and they can be used in many different ways!  In my card, I chose to round out my corners and forgo the scrolls but I kept the ribbon and even the little bow (but in a different way!).  Oh and did I mention that we are making Holiday cards all month long?  Well, how about this for a Christmas card?



Do you see that Heart Tole Wreath?  Upside down?  Now making a HUGE Christmas tree!  The presents underneath are popped up.  They are just little presents stamped onto papers and cut out.  The star is a little sticker (you know the ones the kids bring home on their homework?) again popped up.   The heart tole wreath was pasted with pearlescent paste and F/X powders were added.   

WOW!  The versatility of these stencils are amazing!  I'm excited to show you what I created for next week!  This week's posting and next Thursday's postings will be the Dreamweaver class at the Scrapbook Cupboard on the 10th. 

Now hop on over to some of the other gals blogs and see what they made for their Dream Schemes!

Kim you are a clever, clever girl. I need to start looking at my stencils in a new way, because this card is to die for. I will say again I wish we were all closer so we could have a play date. Sometimes it is just nice to have someone sitting across the table from you that you can bounce creative ideas off of. You would be that person.

What a great idea - turning the stencil upside-down to make a beautiful tree! That's what separates artists from mere mortals!

I laughed when I saw this and realized what stencil it was, very creative!

Too clever for words, Kim. Repurposing stencils could be a future Dream Team challenge!
