Emboss Resist Christmas Card

    Hi Everyone,

working diligently on my Christmas card pile..... I am again playing along with the 52 CCT challenge. This weeks theme is emboss resist. Cool, have not done that in a while. Always good to be remined about old techniques.

I took one of my old wooden stamps (Penny Black) and stamped with Versamark. I then shifted the stamp a tiny bit downward and stamped it again with in black. Heat embossed in clear. And then I sponged around it in blue. The clear embossed Versamark part looks kind of like snow on the branches. A neat effect. I also added water splatters to create some "snow". Stamped my favorite sentiment (Mama Elephant) and added two gems. Mounted it onto a dark blue card stock paper.

I hope you liked this. Thanks for visiting. 
Happy Stamping!
