It's time for week 14 of the Heart of Christmas Blog Hop. Every week the Art With Heart Team are sharing heaps of Christmas inspiration with you.
This week I have used one of the Christmas stamps from the annual catalogue. It's a background stamp called Festive Foliage.
I inked the stamp in Versamark ink and then heat embossed with Gold Emboss Powder. I used my Stamparatus to stamp the large image as it makes it much easier to reink and restamp the image if it doesn't stamp perfectly the first time.
I also stamped and heat embossed the greeting from the Inspired Thoughts stamp set in Gold Emboss Powder. Our Embossing Powders come in either a Basics Collection with Black, White and Clear and a Metallic Collection with Gold, Silver and Copper.
I cut out the greeting using one of the dies from the Pierced Blooms Dies. I love the border of dots that is part of this very versatile dies. It's a great size for so many greetings.
I coloured the leaves with the Soft Succulent and Evening Evergreen Blends Markers.
A piece of Evening Evergreen Chevron Ribbon is behind the greeting. The final embellishment is a few Red Rhinestones scattered around the card.
All of the products I have used for this card are listed below with links that will take you to my online store if you are interested in purchasing.
For more Christmas inspiration it's time to visit the very talented Caroline Manwaring to what she has to share with us.

Happy stamping,
