November Stamp Club Projects

My Stamp Club is taking a break in December but I wanted to share some of the past projects with you. Here is one of our November projects.  I love the shimmer of the Iridescent Ice Embossing Powder which covers the entire stamped portion of the front of this card. The picture just doesn't do it justice! I think this is one of my all time favorite stamp club projects.


We used the "Coffee Filter" technique on the front then stamped the Christmas Collage background stamp from the Holiday Mini catalog over top. That whole piece was then covered with VersaMark ink and embossed with Iridescent Ice embossing powder. That is layered on Old Olive and Cherry Cobbler with Cherry Cobbler seam binding ribbon for the bow. Inside we stamped images from the Bells & Boughs set  (also from the Holiday Mini).



Our other November project involved the "Shaving Cream" technique. (It was a rather messy day!) We did the shaving cream and ink refill technique for the background in Wild Wasabi and Real Red. We used the ornament from the Contempo Christmas set, punched it out with the ornament punch and dressed it up with the 1/8" Real Red ribbon and rhinestones. The inside is stamped with the other three images from the Contempo Christmas set.




Happy Stamping,
