Challenge Me a Christmas Card

Hi there! Today I’m joining my lovely friend, Michelle, for her Christmas card challenge. She contacted me a while ago and asked me to pick the product, theme or technique for our challenge. I said, “How about a rainbow emboss resist Christmas card?” She said, “I was hoping you’d say rainbow”:) So here is what I came up with.

SSS-Leaves & Berries Background, Merry Frame, Marie Snowflake

For the background I embossed the Leaves & Berries background stamp in clear onto white cardstock. Using Pinkfresh Studio inks I blended some subtle and more vibrant colors onto the panel.

For the sentiment I used the Merry Frame die with Tim Holtz Metallic Rose Gold cardstock. I layered it over a snowflake die cut using the Marie Snowflake die. I added a simple coordinating sentiment from the Sentiment Strips Christmas pack. I die cut the sentiment using one of the Sentiment Label dies.

Make sure and check out what Michelle came up with using the rainbow emboss resist theme! Thanks so much for stopping by!

    Hahaha, OF COURSE you said that! I love that it’s such a nontraditional Christmas card, but it’s a traditional Laura Bassen card! Gorgeous!
