I side folded a white card and used the Crafts Too embossing folder "Holly", but since the design didn't reach the area I wanted, I cut the folder apart, and taped it at the other end, now my design landed where I wanted it...
Cut a mask (Spellbinders Labels 22) and sponged various colors of Distress (Old Paper, Antique Linen, Aged Mahogany) around the edges, moving the mask to make the larger design. Used a 4B pencil and a paper stump to blend the shadow line.
Stamped the saying with Distress Aged Mahogany and touched some areas with Walnut Stain, clear embossed.
The flower is red cardstock, scrunched and the high points embossed with gold and is die cut with Marianne Designs "Poinsettia" die set. The center of the flower is a quilled fringe using Quilled Creations "Mum's" die from gold paper.
Hope you enjoyed today's project.
