Here is my card for this month's challenge.
I started by covering an 12 x 12 cm sheet with various sized stars and cut them as a stencil from a sheet of mylar, using my silhouette cameo. I then used small areas of it to stencil some stars on the top corners of plain white base cards. I added a setiment using an old Stampin'up stamp.
The silhouette I used for the image was purchased from the silhouette store. It was all black but I used the inbuilt software to downsize it to fit a 13.5cm square card, and separate the elements. I could then cut them in different colours of vinyl. Once the design is ready it is just as easy to cut several of them as one, so I made nine sets of each element. I am good at losing these pieces when I cut a lot, so I stored them all in a tin until I was ready to assemble them.
Soon I had nine, almost identical cards to join my stash. I am doing well so far this year.
So now I will link this up with the Rudolph Day Challenge.

Hi Kate
Lovely traditional scene inside a Christmas tree flourish. Congrats on getting so many made in prep for the big day.

Wonderful card Kate, and good idea to put all the bits in a tin…..I’m always losing small pieces. You’re amazing with the machines and getting ahead for Christmas. Happy Rudolph Day xxx
A beautiful and clever card Kate. I'm in awe at your use of vinyl, I really must try again to add them to a card. Great stencil too. What thickness Mylar do you use? I've only used laminating sheets. Hope all is well
