I started my Christmas Cards and what gave me the inspiration was a swap card that I made for an Inky Fun Stampers group. (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/inkyfunstampers/ )
I stamped and embossed the Christmas Tree stamp from Michael Strong on green card stock with white ink from Martha Stewart line, and white embossing powder from Ranger products. I mounted that onto white card stock, which I mounted those onto a red velvet card stock. I stamped/embossed Merry Christmas, stamp from Plaid, with white ink & embossing powder onto the red velvet card stock. I placed a piece of ribbon, from American crafts, between the tree and word stamping.
I then used my Cuttlebug Snow Flake folder to emboss snow flakes onto a piece of acetate. I then use white ink and went over the raised images. I used vellum tape to adhere the embossed acetate to the red velvet card stock.
I hope the person that received this enjoys it, as much as I enjoyed creating it. Thank you for looking and until next time....Enjoy.

Very nice card......love the snowflake embossing and the tree stamped in white :)
Thank you for explaining how you made this. Very clever. I was trying to figure it out, but I didn't think of an overlay of acetate. You did a great job highlighting the embossed design.
