My Project:
To watch me make this card in detail, watch the video below!
Christmas to me screams gold and red, so when I saw the Poinsettia stamp set, I knew that I would gold heat emboss the images. Because it is hard on your markers to color images that have been heat embossed, I stamped first with a black ink, colored my images with copic markers, and then stamped over the colored images with versamark ink and heat embossed then. This technique is made possible with a MISTI tool.
