Emboss Resist Technique with Swallowtail

Honestly when I first saw the Swallowtail stamp from the Stampin' Up! spring catalog it wasn't my favorite....until I played with it.  Then, I loved it!  Here's my latest creation with it.

I stamped the image on Whisper White with Versamark and heat embossed it with white embossing powder.  Then I went back over it with sponge daubers inked in Summer Starfruit, Pool Party and Midnight Muse. I adhered it to a piece of Midnight Muse paper, tied some of the Midnight Muse ribbon around it and used Stampin' Dimensionals to pop it on Summer Starfruit paper which had been run through the Big Shot with the Honeycomb embossing folder.  Last, I stamped the sentiment using the Made for You Stamp Set and punched it out with the Word Window punch.  I love how it came out!  My club ladies did too.

Enjoy!

Embellished Events: Merry Christmas!

Hi There!

It's Wednesday and it has been a busy one for me, but it was filled with all good things!  I wanted to share a card that I made with the stamp set Embellished Events!  It's a great all occasion stamp set with images and words for Birthday, Christmas and Celebrations in general.

I heat embossed both the image and the sentiment just to give it a little pop.  The silver shimmer paper behind the bells really pick up on the silver embossing.  

If you like the ribbon used here, you can get it for FREE if you place a $40 order.  Click here for the details.
