This card has LOTS of embossing. I used Versamark with gold embossing powder for the images and sentiments. The front panel was embossed with a Cuttlebug folder and then accented with a gold Wink of Stella pen. I have had the CTMH stamp set for several years and have always had trouble stamping this city-scape. This time I tried it with my Fiskar's stamp press and had no problems getting a good stamped image.
The front panel is popped up over the gold embossed main image.
The inside has a lot more gold embossing. The flourishes are from an old BG Figgy Pudding stamp set. The Merry Christmas is a Stampendous set and the verse is from Mark's Finest Papers. It's hard to believe but I used four stamp sets on this card and NONE of them were digis. :)
Supplies:
Carstock: Georgia Pacific (white), Bazzill (red)
Stamps (all clear stamp sets): CTMH (Bethlehem -retired), Basic Grey (Figgy Pudding), Stampendous (Christmas Wishes), Mark's Finest Papers (Christmas Music)
Ink: Versamark
Tools/Embellishments: Spellbinders dies (Rectangles Large), StampCraft embossing powder (Gold), CuttleBug embossing folder (Baby's Breath), Zig Wink of Stella brush marker (Gold)
