I have another Christmas card to share today featuring a holly background stamp (by Kirsty Wiseman) that I picked up in the post Christmas sales. I stamped it using Versamark Ink on a a piece of green card, then heat embossed it using 'Sensational Sage' embossing glitter from WOW. I found some snippets of the same card, and heat embossed a sentiment (from the 'Letter It - Christmas' set by Ranger), and a couple of sprigs of holly (from the 'Tattered Christmas' set by Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous) using the same embossing glitter...cutting them out using one of my oval Nesties, and the matching 'Tattered Christmas' dies (by Tim Holtz/Sizzix)
Challenges for this card:
- Christmas Card Throwdown - Embossed Impressions
- Christmas at Sweet Stampin' - Add Some Sparkle
- C.R.A.F.T. - New (The background stamp is new)
