Nothing like trying to get a head start on preparing for the upcoming December festivities! Christmas in July is this month’s theme!
I pulled out my Snowflake Wishes stamp set and decided to create an emboss resist card. I love using non-traditional colors for Christmas cards, especially Pool Party and Highland Heather. This time I went for a monochromatic using Highland Heather.
First I laid out my snowflakes on my Stamparatus and used Versamark to stamp them on a piece of white cardstock. Then I embossed with clear embossing powder. Finally I used a blending brush to add Highland Heather ink so the snowflakes show up. I layered my inked panel on Shimmery White cardstock and then Highland Heather. Finally, I added some opal rounds amongst the snowflakes.
