This card was definitely easier to make than to photograph. I knew right away I had found a great reason to use this Village embossing folder. Before I'd looked at it, I was thinking I would somehow highlight two of the houses, but when I saw there were houses with hearts on them, I decided to just highlight two heart with tiny die cuts. This is the only stamp I have with this sentiment; I was worried that the script plus small size would mean white embossing on black wouldn't work, but with ultra-fine powder, it's quite readable.
Supplies: white & Stampin' Up real red & basic black cardstock, Gourmet Rubber Stamps Holiday Lane stamp, Versamark ink, Wow super-fine white embossing powder, Cuttlebug Village embossing folder, heart die cuts from stash, Creative Memories corner-rounding punch, fun foam
ohhhhh my gosh! you are just SO flippin' clever! you really did put A WHOLE TOWN on your card; you had the PERFECT sentiment to make it work, and YES, coloring just the two hearts is an astonishingly great idea. what a brilliant addition to the "HOME for xmas" celebration at JINGLE BELLES! <3
