Holiday Card Fun
On Friday nights, Mike and I usually end up at Auntie Em's (my LSS) and last Friday was no exception...except Emma had a HUGE selection of new stamps and I went a little crazy. I bought some new Hero Arts stamps and made these 2 cards:
I used last year's SU Christmas paper, Old Olive and Cranberry Crisp card stock and 2 of my new stamps on this card. I embossed the christmas ball and merry christmas sentiment in silver, then I added the silver cord.
I used Purely Pomegranite and Blue Bayou for this card. The background was wheeled in versamark with the new Mistletoe wheel and embossed with clear embossing powder. The back panel is the holiday stamp from Block Party. The Merry and Bright is from another Hero Arts stamp. I used my coluzzle to cut it out (I'm hoping SU comes out with a 2" circle punch!) and used my scallop punch for the mat. The ribbon is Purely Pomegranite double-stitched and white grosgrain. The circle and scallop are popped up with dimensionals.

Hey, is that scallop punch from SU!? Because if it is, I wanna order one. And maybe something else too. Bring a catty for me on the 23rd? I'll drop by in the morning, but I have to go to a family reunion in the afernoon. :)
