Sunday Christmas Card Challenges #38

This week's Christmas Card Challenges is an "Anything Goes."  As you may know, I've been re-arranging and re-organizing my craft studio so everything is still in a mess.  I couldn't find what I wanted so, in frustration since I don't handle clutter well and that's what I have at the moment, I used up some of the bits & pieces I found laying around my desk.  There is no stamping on this card other than to ink up the edges with some Vintage Photo.

So, let your imagination take over and see where it leads you.  Have fun and be sure to link up to the challenge and show us what you created.

You can find all the challenge details at Christmas Card Challenges.

Sunday Christmas Card Challenge #38

Dry embossing, wet embossing.  That's the optional challenge for this week's Sunday Christmas Card Challenge.  I opted to do both.  I embossed the Whisper White using the Honeycomb Embossing Folder.  For the image, I heat embossed the cardinal using Pewter Embossing Powder.  Wet embossing and heat embossing are different terms for the same technique.  The photo does not do this card justice!  The natural light did not show the card off to advantage.  I miss my light tent!  I keep forgetting to add the bulb to my shopping list. 

Stamp Set:  Beauty of the Season; Inks:  Blackberry Bliss, VersaMark Watermark Pad, E39 Copic Sketch Marker; Card Stock:  Blackberry Bliss, Whisper White; Accessories & Tools:  Decorative Label Punch, Honeycomb Embossing Folder, Pewter Embossing Powder, Pistachio Pudding Thick Baker's Twine, Rhinestone Basic Jewels, Dimensionals
