Happy New Year!


It's hard to believe we've come to the last day of 2018 already, but here we are! I enjoy the feeling of clean slate whether it be -- the start of a new day, the beginning of a new month, or the dawn of a  new year! I thought this TCW stencil looked a bit like a clock face it's center, so I decided to make a New Year's card with it. This card is a bit of a departure for me -- it's a bit more mixed media than I usually do, but I really wanted to do something with my Gelli Plate. I mixed two colors of distress paint (blue and gray) on my gelli plate and used a stencil to create the center of my card.

 Here's wishing each of you a Happy and Blessed 2019!

Gelli Printing Plate
Mini Rosetta Stencil (TCW)

This is awesome. I love the colors you used on your gelli plate. The stenciled silver gives it such an elegance and the blue gives such a richness. I hope this New Year is full of blessings for you. Thanks for sharing this creation with STAMPlorations.
