Christmas Cards

Please forgive the pictures. My camera doesn't take close ups very well...For these cards, I actually used an embosser. Not a heat embosser, but the kind you use kind of like a pencil with a stencil.

You can get one of these at your local craft store for around $5. You can get brass embossing stencils for fairly cheap, as well.

It's hard to tell in the picture, but I used pop dots to make the hat and scarf stand out.
To get the "antiqued" look on the holly leaves, I took a piece of sandpaper to it over the embossed part.
The snowflakes are the embossed part on this one. I added a bit of glitter to make them stand out better. I also used ink to chalk around the edges of the papers.
