I'm continuing on this morning with more cards I made yesterday using various stamps from Skull and Cross Buns Rubber Stamps.
For this one I used the Christmas Stocking stamp once again, but this time I embossed it with three different metallic shades.
On a panel of white cardstock, and using my MISTI to get even alignment, I stamped the stockings in a row using VersaMark ink. I then sprinkled on some pewter embossing powder over the top third of the stockings. Then holding the panel the same way I sprinkled with copper, and then finally covered the bottom section in gold, and heated to melt the various powders.
Once cooled I die cut the panel with a stitched rectangle before stamping the sentiment and popping the panel onto the card base using fun foam.
Materials used:
- Stamps: Skull and Cross Buns - Christmas Stocking; Paul Pascual - Christmas Messages
- Ink: VersaMark; Versafine - Onyx Black
- Embossing Powder: Wow! - Metallic Pewter, Metallic Copper, Metallic Gold Rich
- Die: MFT Die-namics - Wonky Stitched Rectangles
