So excited for another Online Card Class and for day one I decided to try Jennifer McGuire's technique of embossing over embossing but without using the snow effect cause it didn't seem to work with me card (trust me, I tried and had to lop off the bottom of the card!).
I used Ranger's Queen's Gold embossing powder for the base layer I then stamped MFT's Garden Flourish with versamark and embossed with WOW vintage peacock. It worked just the way Jennifer said and melted slightly into the gold. Unfortunately, it was too subtle and a little to elegant to add the white snow embossing so I cut off the mess I made while trying that and made a square card. I used Avery Elle's Seasons Greetings die and embossed with the same gold. I cut 3 more layers and adhered them together. The die comes with holly leaves and berries but I used red glitter stickles for the holly berries which don't show up well at all in the photo. A little WOS on the leaves and that was it.
Card stock base is MFT Elf Green.
This is so elegant! Lovely card
