Merry Monday Christmas Card Challenge #271

We are starting the year off right with a brand new Merry Monday Christmas Card Challenge.

Linda is our hostess for the first challenge of 2018 and her challenge is to Create a Christmas card with heat or dry embossing.


I got the design for my card from a tag I made this Christmas. I found two older embossing powders in my drawer and wanted to see if they would still work. They did, because of their age, I did not mind mixing them up a little to get the two-toned effect.

I stamped the snowflakes and heat embossed them, then with the leftover embossing powder I stamped and heat embossed the sentiment on vellum. I finished by adding spatter from my Gansai Tambo Starry colours pallet. The panel black is popped up with foam tape.



Supplies: White and Black cardstock, vellum, Verve - Glad Tidings, Clearly Besotted - Brushed Greetings, platinum and antique gold embossing powders. 

Wishing everyone all the best for 2018. Be sure to stop by the Merry Monday blog to take a look at all the fabulous cards created by the design team.

Cheers,
Nina
