I made this card for my upcoming class. I teach beginning and seasoned stampers so I try to make it work for both! I used Penny Black stamps - 4102k snow dust, 4117h the gift of peace and 3892k snow scroll.
Stamp the trees with Versamark and emboss with white. The words were stamped with versafine black and embossed with clear. I used Distress inks in - bundled sage, forest moss and tumbled glass. With these I took daubers to the pads and then gently rubbed color around the edges and in the trees to give depth. Stamp the scrolls on the red c/s with versamark and emboss with clear. Assemble card. Take a red brush marker and make dots randomly on the trees. Add xmas red stickles to the red dots. The stickles pulls the red color into the glue and gives it more solid color.
DONE!
Thank you so much for stopping by!
The white embossing is so elegant against the distressed ink. You've inspired me to reach for my white embossing powder!
