Our neighbourhood is scheduled for a power outage today for 5 hours so since I was awake early I thought to get a few photos taken and a couple of posts done....
Another easy to make card... with Gail and Jo having me eyeing off my embossing folders regularly I decided to use this holly one with light green card.... then gently swiped the Versamark pad over the raised surface and sprinkled with gold embossing powder.... I omitted to use my antistatic pad and got more on the background but just removed a fair bit of this with a fine brush...heat set this and finished off the panel with a die cut red shiny sentiment (this red card is glittery nearly holographic and is a recycled Christmas bonbon - yep I'm always on the lookout for card I can reuse and collected the snapped bonbons from last Christmas dinner).
I am playing along with Christmas Kickstart challenge #48 - Green Christmas.
Thanks for stopping by my blog.... have a Wonderful Creative weekend, cheers

Always love green, red and gold as a combo, Robyn. Lovely card - great to see an embossing folder too. Thanks for playing at Christmas Kickstart, Jo x
ReplyDeleteGood Morning Robyn! Greetings from grey and chilly Northern Florida.
ReplyDeleteYou card is so festive -- there are so many techniques I want to do but haven't tried. Your background really is beautiful and one day, I will try this technique.
Bravo!!

Love the heat and dry embossed background, Robyn! And that sentiment is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI hope everything is back to normal now? Fabulous card Robyn and so sparkly!
ReplyDeleteThe embossed holly looks so pretty done in gold on green card. What a lovely combination, Robyn! And the red die-cut sentiment is so pretty. Great way to recycle! xx
