Hey friends I’m so excited to be joining the Alex Syberia design team and guests to celebrate their one year anniversary! I have always been a big fan of Alex Syberia Designs so I am grateful to be celebrating their success! ASD is having a huge blog hop and other events in the next week so make sure to follow along for all the details. There are a ton of prizes and inspiration coming your way. After checking out my blog, be sure to head over to the next person’s blog to continue the hop. Leave comments along the way for a chance to win. All the details and the full blog hop list are below.
Today, I’m sharing two cards made using the same stenciling. I always love a two-fer.

Card 1: Not Older, Just Better
- Die cut a panel of white cardstock with the Dazzling Fireworks Cover Die. Adhere to an A2 card base.
- Splatter the card front with gold, metallic watercolor.
- Using pink hot foil, glimmer foil the Illuminated Night Sky Hot Foil Plate and die cut it with the coordinating dies. These are such pretty fireworks!
- Ink blend pink ink on each firework, darker in the middle and going lighter on the edges.
- Ink blend the Flickering Candlelight Stencil Set using three different inks. For the detail layer, use gold Lunar paste. This stencil set gives you a slimline length image with plenty of space to create multiple cards.
- Using the circle die from Timeless Blooms Celebration Die Set, die cut from the stenciled panel. This leaves you with two circles with the candle design from which to make a card.
- Pop up the circle die cut with foam tape and adhere the fireworks around the panel. Embellish with gold glitter drops.
- Add a sentiment that I hot foiled with gold foil using the Celebrations Sentiments Hot Foil Plate.
Card 2: Make a Wish
- Make a circle shaped card base using the circle die from Timeless Blooms Celebration Die Set.
- Adhere the second stenciled panel with candles on top of the card base.
- Lightly ink blend at the top with blue ink and splatter gold, metallic watercolor.
- Hot foil the sentiment with light blue foil using the Birthday & Wish Hot Foil Plate Set. Die cut with the Birthday & Wish Die Set.
- Embellish with gold glitter drops.
A special thank you to the wonderful sponsors!

Hello from Michigan in the USA. I’m not even sure if my post went through the first time so I’ll post again because I want you to know how much I love your cards. 🤗. I especially love your card showcasing the illuminated night sky hot foil plate, and die set. I haven’t really noticed it before on any of the other cards in this blog hop. I also love the way you’ve use the pink foil on your card. It is just gorgeous.
