ETA: Wow, my card was chosen as the Top Pick at CAS Christmas Card Challenge.
This is my card for the CAS Christmas challenge - Peace.
I die cut Impression Obsession Peace die from silver foil cardstock and the Penny Black Manger die from silver foil and heavy white cardstock and offset them slightly so the silver would show. I mounted the Manger die in an opening created with an MFT die. The panel behind it is made using the faux mother of pearl technique. I used Frost White paint, SU Marina Mist and Wild Wasabi inks. The photo below shows the pretty shine on the panel and the silver foil cardstock. I really like the way it turned out. The mat is SU Marina Mist cardstock.
Thanks so much for stopping by and taking a look. I hope you have a wonderful day.
Happy Stamping,
JoAnn
