Sparkling Mandala Burst

 The Gina K Designs Monthly Mix challenge for December is to use two stencils on the card. Here is my first card:

First, I inked up the Art Deco stencil with In the Navy ink.

Once that dried completely, I used the Mandala Burst stencil with Silver Glitz glitter gel. I liked the sparkle, but the design didn't show up against the background. I put it aside and the next day I had the idea to outline each area with a black marker to make it show up better.

I added a blue layer before attaching it to a white card base.

I didn't want to cover any of the design, so I didn't add a sentiment on the outside of the card.
