Hello! I have been playing with more stamps from The Twelve Days of Christmas stamp set from Creative Stamping Magazine. I used a drum stamp that I inked with versamark and heat embossed with Gold EP. I stamped the sentiments with the same technique. While I was at it, I decided to do 2 cards but with different color combos. The top card was stamped on white card stock and colored with gold, ivory, reds, and blue copics. I used a Turquoise card base. The second card was made with ivory card stock and colored with Copics in more traditional Christmas colors red, green, and gold. I used a Green Metallic Foil card stock behind the image and attached to an ivory base. I used a Gold Metallic marker to edge the image for each card before assembling the cards. This gives the appearance of another layer without the extra weight.
