Here's my card for the Ways to Use It Challenge - Faux letterpress - or inking your embossing folder!
I used my Tim Holtz Tall Pines Sizzix embossing folder - I inked it with Paris Dusk Ink (like navy) so the trees show the green of the textured card stock (Core dinations) and the surrounding areas were darkened with the ink - I was thinking it would make it look like 'night time' in the forest!?!
The pine panel was punched with my new Martha Stewart Punch (on sale at Joann's!) I added some Diamond Stickles to give it some shimmer.
The sentiment is the last two words of a larger sentiment stamp from Rubbernecker the stamp says 'Wishing You a Holiday Full of Wonder and Joy"
The sentiment is die cut with Trio Labels by Spellbinders and adhered with foam tape. I added a few rhinestones to the trees to finish it off.
