I laid the stencil over some white cs and sponged with red and green Distress Oxide inks. I washed the stencil and put it back in place and went over it with translucent embossing paste. After removing the stencil, I immediately sprinkled glitter all over the wet paste.
When dry, I trimmed it, popped it up on fun foam, and added a heat embossed sentiment, die cut with a label die. The label die needed a little something so I added red gemstones to the four points.
It's very hard to photograph glitter and sparkle, but I managed to capture it somewhat in this photo:
