This is my Christmas card for this year - I found this stamp at the Impress store (love it!!!). I picked it up as a gift for a friend but decided I should get one also for being such a considerate friend - haha!
I stamped the skyline first, covered it with a mask and brayered over the top with bordering blue ink. I had no power when I was working on these cards (crazy Northwest winter storm) - it was kinda fun to see the difference in the colors when the power finally came back on! It's hard to tell but the green garland is embossed to give it a little texture.

Oh my gosh! The blue brayered over shimmering white is STUNNING! I think this just pushed me over the top to try the shimmer paper. I LOVE your simple, gorgeous card!!!
