Alright, let’s get to the sugary details!
I started off my project by coloring up these adorable cookies in the jar from the Gingerbread Kisses stamp set with my Copic Markers. I used the coordinating dies to cut them out, and set them, aside for later.
Next, I wanted to get my embossing done. I went ahead and die cut the letters to spell “OH SNAP” twice from Stop Sign Cardstock using the Thin Alpha Die Set. I then adhered the letters on top of each other to get a stacked look. I pressed each letter into the Embossing Watermark Ink Pad and then poured the new Cranberries Embossing Powder onto each letter to heat emboss. Once embossed, I set aside. I then stamped out my the sentiment “It’s beginning to taste a lot like Christmas” in the Embossing Watermark Ink Pad onto Stop Sign Cardstock, brushed with the Magic Anti-Static Brush, and heat embossed that in Frosting Embossing Powder. I used the Gingerbread Kisses coordinating dies to cut out the sentiment.
I then took a 3.875″ x 5.125″ piece of white cardstock and blended from the bottom up with Salvaged Patina Distress Oxide Ink. I misted the panel, placed it into the Buffalo Plaid Embossing Folder, and processed it through my die-cutting machine. I then splattered some rusty red metallic watercolor onto the panel and let it dry. I adhered my die cut words with liquid tape, and then adhered the other sentiment and my image with foam tape. I also placed a few Floral Pumpkin Enamel dots around this panel as well.
Because I wanted a framed effect, I cut a 4″ x 5.25″ piece of Pebble Cardstock and distressed the edges with Vintage Photo Distress Ink. I adhered my embossed layer on top of my distressed Pebble Cardstock layer. I then adhered that layer onto an A2-sized pattern paper from the Homespun Christmas Paper Pack, and finally adhered the whole unit onto an A2-sized card base!
I was all complete!
