I decided not to do a Holiday Card, but still use items from the Holiday Catalog!

I started out and placed the stamps I wanted to use like a collage on a clear block

Then I stamped it 2x in VersaMark ink, sprinkled with clear embossing powder and heat embossed...

Then I applied 3 inks in direct to paper method and the last one I lightly sponged where I wanted dark but soft coverage

Oh and before I forget, here is a close up on the very cool embellishment I made

I LOVE the swirly background! It's part of the "Cheerful Tags Framlilt". I am not sure you can see the rhinestones ...
