This is the set I chose to work with this week.....
This is my card.....I stamped & Embossed the tree image for my background.
I first spritzed some ink on a piece of white CS with a marker and holder, and just blew on the holder, I then stamped the trees with Versamark, and used blue EP, and set with a heat gun, then I made the large ornament, and stamped with versamark, embossed with the same blue EP, and then heat set it and then I covered the emtire image with verseamark again and sprinkled heat & set powder on it, heated that & set, and covered with glitter and heat again for a bit to set, and you get the high gloss on the ornament!
Showing another view...I almost got my bow too large, covers the ornament a bit too much, but I liked the effect of the bow, so left it as is.....
