25 Days of Christmas Tags 2018 - Day 14 + Loll's 12 Tags of Christmas

Hi there,
This is my tag for Day 14 of Tracey McNeely's 25 Days of Christmas Tags plus Loll's 12 Tags of Christmas.  For this tag I stamped my stamp with stamp pads randomly and then used a sponge to soften some of the lines made by the darker colour.  I spritzed the stamp and then stamped on Whisper White card.  When the image was dry I die cut my tag, stamping the sentiment and heat embossing.  I finished off by dying the crochet cord with Shaded Spruce and when dry I attached it to my tag.
 I was inspired by Kim Heggins on Day 14

CAS Mix Up Reminder - November, 2018 - Embossing Folders - Wedgewood China

Hi Stamping Friends,
Today's post is a reminder that you still have some time to play along at CAS Mix Up.  The Embossing Folder Challenge Hosted by Bonnie closes on the 24th November, 2018.
For this card I inked and embossed a panel with Tim Holt's 3D Embossing Folder called Botanical.  I  Swiped the raised surface with a Versamark Stamp Pad and then used Perfect Pearls Interference Red and brushed over the Versamark.  The raised embossing has a beautiful sheen which I had difficulty photographing. I used a Metallic Pink Card and S/U's Dotted Scallop Border Punch cut in half to highlight the edges.  Unfortunately when I tried to punch another border strip for the inside of my card my punch jammed and I still can't get it to open. I finished off with the White embossed Sentiment and Border on Pink Metallic Card punched with a large Oval Punch.

Mix Up: Embossing Folder, Perfect Pearls, Heat Embossing, Punching, Stamping
Supplies:
Stamps: S/U's Vintage Labels
Card: Thick and Thin Whisper White, Pink Metallic Card
Ink: Tim Holtz  Spun Sugar Distress Ink, Versamark
Cool Tools: Big Shot, Tim Holtz 3D Sizzix Botanical E/Folder, Mini Mister, Perfect Pearls - Interference Red, Paint Brush, Stamp-a-ma-jig, Embossing Buddy, White E/Powder, Heat Tool, Large Oval Punch, Dotted Scallop Border Punch, Dble Sided Tape, 2 Way Glue Pen, Foam Tape
