ETA: My card got Honorable Mention at Merry Monday.
This is my card for the Merry Monday #97 Christmas card challenge. I used X-Press It Blending Card (white) and SU Brushed Silver and Coastal Cabana CS and DSP. The image is a Hero Arts stamp and the sentiment is from SU Peaceful Seasons. Both are stamped with Versamark ink and embossed with Ranger Silver Embossing Powder. I did some paper-piercing around the sentiment. The ornament was cut out with SU Holiday Ornaments Framelits and mounted with foam dimensionals. The silver ribbon is from SU.
It was hard to get a good photo of the silver embossing. It looks so much prettier in person. Here is a different angle that shows the embossing better.
Thanks for stopping by my blog. I hope you have a wonderful day.
Happy Stamping,
JoAnn
