Welcome- I'm so happy to be participating in today's hop. Dreamweaver has so many beautiful stencils to choose from, but since it's summer I went with a beach theme.
I love to add texture to my projects, so I decided to use Creative Medium with the stencils to make them into beautiful embellishments . 
The best way to do this is with a palette knife.
The best way to do this is with a palette knife.I use the back of the knife and spread it on , like icing a cake.
When your piece is dry , add a little Niagara Mist with a dauber. The Creative Medium is a resist so you get a really cool affect. You might need to wipe off the raised areas with a paper towel.
For the background I daubed a 1 3/8 x 1 3/8 piece of white paper with Niagara Mist and ran it through a crimper.
I randomly stenciled the shell on a 3x3 piece of white paper using Niagara Mist and Sage. Ink your card base with the same colors and emboss with your favorite folder add a sentiment and your done.
Supplies:
