Pink and Silver Noel


This stamp is an old PSX stamp that has to be at least 20 years old. I had it in elementary school. (Yes, I know I'm dating myself.) I've rarely used it since it always overwhelmed a standard A2 card. I saw an example on SCS of it on a square card and fell in love all over again.

The image was stamped in versamark and then heat embossed with silver embossing powder. I coloured the image with copics and it was so fast. I am really liking the grey poinsettias. I wasn't sure when I started but the card is for the "Hope You Can Cling To" challenge on SCS and I didn't want to introduce anymore colours.

I didn't have any ribbon that seemed to fit so I bordered the image panel is a scrap of Mellow Moss. The base is more of my Raspberry Brazzil paper.
