Letterpress Plates and Embossing Folder Christmas Cards
Letterpress plates were introduced in September 2010 in the Holiday Mini ® Catalogue with two that are decorative Christmas plates. I haven't been able to get them to "deboss", but they work well for "printing press" style images. The "Joyful Season" ® and "Northern Trim" ® plates are shown below, using Rose Red ® , Certainly Celery ® and Confetti White ® cardstocks and CRAFT (pigment) inks. The sparkling Glassy Glitter ® (Champagne) was added using Sticky Strip ® . The scalloped edge punch embellishes the pointsetta strip. The "Peace on Earth" ® stamp comes from "Peaceful Season" ® , a new hostess set introduced in the Holiday Mini ® .
The "Merry Christmas" card uses the "Tags til Christmas" ® set from the Holiday Mini ® catalogue, the Extra-Large Decorative Label ® punch, and the Hostess set, "Occasional Quotes" ® . This card uses the "Northern Flurry" ® Embossing folder, which is then rubbed (direct-to-paper technique) with the White Craft ink pad. It is then embossed with Irridescent Ice ® , to give it a frosted window effect.
