{BYSHC} Spring into Christmas 2026 Linky Party ~ Dotty Ornaments Stencils ~ A Colorful Life Designs

 Hello there crafty friend!

It's day 3 of the {BYSHC} Spring into Christmas 2026 Linky Party!! I'm excited to share another holiday card that I've made to add to my Christmas stash! This time I played with a couple stencils from our fabulous Sponsor A Colorful Life Designs. It's a rainbow slimline card!

I used the Dotty Ornaments Set 1 and Dotty Ornaments Set 2 for my card today. I just love the fun ornament designs!!

Working from the left to right... I used the Dotty Ornaments Set 1 for the first three ornaments along with Distress Inks. I masked each of the ornaments  using iCraft Pixie Tape so I didn't blend into the other ornament shapes. I blended Kitsch Flamingo in the center of the circle swirl ornament and blended Candied Apple around the outer edge and bow. I blended Mustard Seed in the center of the star and Spiced Marmalade around the outer edge and bow. I blended Mustard Seed on the left side of the middle ornament and then blended Mowed Lawn. I used the Dotty Ornaments Set 2 for the remaining ornaments. I used Tumbled Glass and Salty Ocean on the first one. I masked the stencil with iCraft Pixie Tape so I could alternate the colors. And finally I blended Seedless Preserves on the right side of the tree ornament and Wilted Violet on the left side and bow. For the dotted string I blended Lost Shadow.

I didn't have a slimline die that would cut the panel without cutting away too much of the ornaments, so I just trimmed it down to 3-1/4 x 8-1/8" and adhered it to a black mat measuring 8-1/2 x 3-1/2" and then adhered that to a white slimline card base measuring 8-1/2 x 7"; scored at 3-1/2". The cute sentiment is from the retired Fluffy Friends - Holiday stamp set from Sponsor Taylored Expressions.
