After WWII, my Dad got an art education degree but he couldn't find a teaching job; instead he learned how to do blueprints and had several jobs designing retail stores. I used to love to visit him at work and watch him draw and print his blueprints. I loved the smell of the chemicals (kind of like mimeograph!). So I'm drawn to things that have to do with blueprints and had to have these Tim Holtz Christmas stamps. I also wanted to do the FS so I chose this card of Lee-Ann's: CAS194 Pink Angel Joy by Shadow's Mom at Splitcoaststampers
I turned my card and used a saying stamp along the bottom instead of the ribbon. I silver embossed 'tis the season to make it stand out. The snowflake is clear embossed with the n of n and Versamark and a little of the boysenberry sponged in the middle. I loved Lee-Ann's gallery, especially this collage card. My shiny today is the star gem, the embossing and the navy metallic cs. can't have too much shiny this time of year!
