Glamorous rose gold Christmas wishes

Hopefully you have already heard my exciting news,
seen my cards in THIS post and
entered for your chance to win on The Stencil Specialist Blog HOP.

This pair of cards use the Stampendous Pine Ornaments Cling Rubber Stamp and
Rose Gold Embossing Enamel with sentiments by Kaisercraft and Ultimate Crafts.
These CAS designs were quick and easy to prepare and assemble.


I measured the stamp and cut some 3" x 4 1/4" panels to stamp them on.
I aligned the stamp with a panel in my MISTI and started stamping.

I stamped each panel with Tattered Rose Distress Ink first, to give a solid background for the heat embossing to come.  I heat set each panel, dusted with my powder tool, stamped with Versamark ink, smothering each panel with embossing powder, then held my breath in awe as the magic happened before my eyes with the heat gun - WOW!

I cut some slightly larger panels to mat each image panel, went around the edges with Versamark ink and heat embossed to match the image panel to give me perfectly matching matting panels.
I die cut the pair of Merry Christmas sentiments and heat embossed them too.

The smaller card is 5x7", the larger A5.



Here is a close-up pic showing the beautiful detail of the stamp
and the delicate shimmer of the rose gold embossing enamel.


It's gorgeous, so hard to photograph, pure magic in real life,
a delicate pinkish gold that shimmers & sparkles in the light!
