It has been so hot in Southern California that I
decided to do a winter themed card for the embossing challenge. I am still stuck on my distress marker
backgrounds so I did a wintery night background (need to figure out how to do northern lights) and then I versamarked the
WHOLE thing and embossed with clear embossing powder. The WHOLE thing! I then used Stampendous
chunky white to get the effect of snow and snow falling. I added a bit of Stamp n Stuffs Kaleidoscope to the snow on the ground. It was hard to keep the embossing powder on
the card and then I had a problem with overheating it and it bubbled and
melted. I colored the rest of the images
with my copics and used my embosser tool to press out the back of the igloo to
give it a little depth. I attached the pieces with Glossy Accents to hold
them onto the shiny background. Then I embossed the banner and sentiment on an old piece of slightly grayed vellum
that had snowflakes on it but they ended up being invisible. I used a ton of double stick tape on the back
because the background piece was very warped from all the embossing. Hope you like my crazy amount of embossing card!
