Christmas 24: Embossing


Hello, friends! I am SO excited to be sharing another card created for the *NEWEST* holiday card challenge, Christmas 24! If you follow along, you will have 24 cards made before the Christmas holiday each year! Challenges are biweekly on the 1st and 15th of the month, and this time's challenge is EMBOSSING: HEAT OR DRY.  Take a peek at my creation...


I used an older stamp set from Hero Arts for the stamped image. I added highlights to the wreath image with Sakura glitter gel pens. I also added some texture by roughing up the edges of the white part of my focal panel.


For the bottom of my focal panel, I added some twine I recently purchased from The Dollar Tree, some punched leaves (punch by Stampin' Up!) that were also highlighted with gel pen, a paper flower from my stash, and a few enamel dots from The Stamps of Life.


The embossing folder I used is by Darice and was purchased from Consumer Crafts. I love the way it frames my focal panel with a lovely floral feel! I truly adore the way this simply card turned out! What do you think? Please leave me a comment below to let me know your thoughts!


I'm entering this card into these fabulous challenges~


(3 enamel dots, 3 leaves, grps. of 3 berries)



Thank you so much for stopping by today, friends! Please come join us at Christmas 24, and don't forget to leave some love with the other members of this fabulous team! Until next time, HUGS and happy stamping!
