Emboss Resist Christmas Card with Snowflakes

Hi everyone! Ilina here. Today I am sharing a fun holiday card using the Noel Bold Prints stamp along with the Snowflake Cluster Fancy Die and the Merry Christmas Banner Die.

To make the card start with a piece of Mist cardstock measuring 4 1/4" x 5 1/2". Stamp the Noel Bold Prints using Embossing and Watermark ink and emboss in white. Once embossed, trim it to 4" x 5 1/4". Using an ink blending tool or brush, blend in some Cornflower Shadow ink around the edges going toward the center, then do the same with Navy shadow ink making sure you get a nice gradient and the middle of the panel remains lighter. Once done set it aside.

Die cut two Snowflake Clusters and one Merry Christmas Banner from Dove White cardstock. Spritz with with White Iridescent Shimmer Spray. Let it dry.

Once dry, adhere the snowflake clusters to the top left corner and the bottom right. Trim the extra.

Using thin strips of foam mounting tape, adhere the banner to the center of the panel. Adhere the panel to a top folding Nautical card using fun foam and that finishes your card.

Thanks for stopping by. I hope you are inspired to create something today!
