Reverse stenciling

[barracudasue]

I took the Blessings Charm from Shelly's Art and used it as a reverse stencil. Here's the link to the card...

Now here's a link to what the stencil charm looks like:

Another take on the charm other than making it look like metal. Just thought I'd share my brainstorm!

Blessings,

Adorable use of Shelly's file! I love it when people think outside the box!

Thank you Shirely and Helena! Thinking outside the box is what I do best, I think! =) I love being creative and taking something and totally using it for what it was not intended for is a neat way to show off the creativity side of me. =) I also did the reverse stenciling on the table runner for Thanksgiving, which gave me the idea of doing it on the card. You could also take whatever file and just punch out the cut and use that as a regular stencil as I did on the table runner leaves. My table runner picture is on the Gallery and I used Carrie's Creations files for all of it. You can see it at:
