This is for Mary's Color Challenge: Cherry Cobbler, Wild Wasabi, Gold and neutrals of white or vanilla. Dessert is anything goes. These colors said "Christmas" to me. I was glad for the motivation to get another Christmas card done. As I looked through my Christmas sets, I found this old one that worked great for the colors. The vine is heat embossed. I don't have the right kind of ink pad to emboss in Wasabi, so I first inked my stamp with a VersaMark pad and then used a regular Wasabi ink pad. I stamped the image and embossed with Iridescent EP. This inking method and the kind of powder used seemed to lighten the color a little bit, but it is super sparkly IRL, so it's worth it. The berries are stamped in Cherry Cobbler. The sentiment is gold embossed. For balance, I punched one corner and put on a tiny rhinestone. Used gold and cherry layers and gave it a gold bow to finish. My anything goes is Christmas & heat embossing. One more Christmas card done! Would you like to join me? I look forward to seeing what is your "anything goes" and how you use the colors. Thanks for looking!
