Elegant Red and Gold Embossed Holiday Card

Happy Saturday!  Today I'm sharing this card featuring Picket Fence Studios' Winter Blooms stamp and the Merry Christmas Word Die Set.

I started with a 4" x 5-¼" piece of red cardstock.  After using my anti-static powder on the cardstock, I stamped the small image from the Winter Blooms stamp set with Versamark embossing ink and added gold embossing powder.  After I heat set the powder, I inked around the edges with two shades of dark red ink.  Be sure to use a clean towel to wipe the excess ink off of the embossing!

I die cut the "Christmas" from the Merry Christmas die three times in red cardstock and once from brushed gold cardstock.  Merry is die cut from white cardstock and inked with a dark red ink using a Paper Pouncer.

I added gold gems from the North Pole gem mix for a bit of sparkle!  

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you're having a good weekend!
