Lots of ideas this month from the inspiration photo - so many pretty colors, the trees, stockings, presents and ornaments. I'm glad this month was easy because I've been busy with the usual year end rush of getting things done for the holidays. Each year I say I'm going to start earlier, but that never seems to happen!😎
On a piece of white cardstock, I stamped the tree in Versamark ink, sprinkled it with gold embossing powder and heat set it. The little dots around the tree are stamped in Hawaiian Shores ink and the ornaments colored with a Copic marker. I stamped the tree stand in Tropical Teal ink and the star in Raspberry Fizz ink.
Merry Christmas is stamped in Tropical Teal ink on a piece of Hawaiian Shores cardstock with a bottom border of gold foil cardstock. It's on fun foam for dimension. I lightly edged the panel with Raspberry Fizz ink and placed it on a Hawaiian Shores cardstock card base.
You can see the embossing a little bit better with the card on an angle:
- Stamps: PTI O'Tannenbaum, Keep It Simple: Merry Christmas

- Ink: PTI Hawaiian Shores, Raspberry Fizz, Tropical Teal; Versamark
