Gold-Edged Layers & Stenciled Florals (Days 4 & 5)

The Stampin’ Up!® 12 Days of Crafting Advent Calendar keeps delivering coordinated goodies—and today I’m sharing two cards that show how easy it is to mix the surprises for quick, pretty results. Day 4’s gold-edged labels add instant polish to sentiments, and Day 5’s Decorative Masks (stencils) make soft florals in minutes. Use them together or on their own—either way, the coordination does the heavy lifting.

Day 4: Gold-Edged Label + Blue Blooms

Look: Misty-Moonlight florals layered over DSP, anchored with a gold-edged label for the greeting.
Touches: Tiny gold foil butterfly + glimmer dots to echo the label edge.
Why it works: The warm metallic edge frames the sentiment and ties every gold accent together—simple, cohesive, done.

Day 5: Stenciled Banner Birthday

Look: Ink-blended florals using the Decorative Masks on a party-banner die cut.
Touches: Petite gold butterfly, a sprinkle of glimmer, and “BIRTHDAY wishes” stamped right on the banner.
Why it works: Soft shading from the masks gives depth without bulk; the banner shape keeps the design playful.
