Maybe the last Christmas card posting from me?
I just had to try out this new 3D Texture Fades Embossing Folder recently purchased. I rubbed Ranger Distress Forest Moss Ink along the inside of the top panel, spritzed with water and embossed on a white card panel. LOVE how it came out. I took the panel out of the folder and then rubbed across the raised branches with the Forest Moss ink to highlight it a bit.
I die cut the sled out of red card and stamped the details over it (PTI retired), punched holes and tied on the twine handle, added a bell and sentiment and adhered it over the panel with foam dots.
I'm linking my card to:
