Celtic Christmas Stamp Set

Hi Everyone it's Teresa here today to share one of my favorite cards i think i have done 

so far.  I love all things Celtic and have rich family history in it so i let my inspiration 

take flight and this is what i came up with.  It's super rich in color and has just enough 

gold to really set it off.

I wanted to use both stamps on the front so i cut a piece of card stock in the rich peacock 

color like the card base to fit both of them and then i used a really wrinkled up piece 

of tissue to decoupage over the front of it.  I let it dry really good and then i use foam 

daubers to apply 2 colors of aqua ink over the tissue. Then i stamped the image in black 

detail ink and embossed it with gold embossing powder.  The black shows through just 

a little to give it a vintage look.  And just to add a little more age to it i used a 

Versafine pen around the edges and added more gold embossing powder.  You will 

need to adhere it really good to the paper with 3D foam squares to make it lay flat 

since it is so thick. The printed back round papers i used are from DCWV.

I hope you like it and if you have any questions be sure and leave a comment

and i will be happy to answer them ASAP.  Have a wonderful day!!

Here are the products i used from the Quietfire store:

Hi! I hope you are in the Christmas spirit since it's already December.  It'll come before you know it!  I think that is why I love any Christmas decor with PEACE in it.  And this new stamp from Quietfire is no exception.  And I just love that it is Celtic inspired!  It's so detailed and pretty!. Here I embossed it with WOW gold embossing powder after stamping with Versamark.  I used Lil' Inkers Stitched Circles die to cut it out.  My arches are made with Martha Stewart's branch punch and Poppy Stamps Small Blooming Poinsettias.  

For some final touches I added some DMC silver floss and pearls colored with a red Copic marker.  I layered my background with some designer paper from Recollection Rustic Luxe, white Neenah and red card stock.

I hope your December is filled with love and peace each day!
