3/3 Triple Layered Heat Embossed Everything Eleanor Vintage Thank you with Fan Fair Designer Paper

Good Morning Friends!

Have you seen enough of the Fan Fair product suite this week?  This GORGEOUS Stamp set Everything Eleanor layers beautifully with heat embossing.

I'm so excited to share this wonderful card with you.  It's so romantic!

I am in LOVE with the idea of multiple layers of embossing. When you heat emboss on top of another heat embossed layer, you can layer your embossing like you layer paper. It's so fun! I'm not sure that this is the most beautiful card I've ever made, but I'm in LOVE with the process.

First, right on the fan fair DSP, I embossed flourishes with clear embossing powder.

Next, I sponged right on top of it with soft suede ink, and used a paper towel to wipe away the ink on top of the embossed image.

Then, I embossed with vanilla embossing powder right on top. If that wasn't enough I embossed a THIRD time using Gold. I punched a hole in either side of my embossed flower so that the ribbon would not interfere with my pretty gold flower. Too fun!

Shabby Chic and delicious!  :)

Thank you for the chance to win blog candy. I look forward to reading your blog and seeing what beautiful creations you have to share.

My favorite Christmas tradition is making cut out cookies with my daughters and grandchildren. It started when my girls were very young...they are now 35 and 31 and have young children of their own. We put on christmas music using LP albums(!!!) and the favorite one is a Kenny and Dolly album. We still use the old turntable we started with and have a great time. The grandchildren, both boys and girls, have now joined in the fun of both decorating and eating the final results!

So here is today's Christmas project ~ we are on day 16!  Today was an EXCELLENT day.  I had a house full of stampers for scrap booking.  At the end, my friend came over and we continued stamping well after 11pm.  What a great day it was.  My scrappers are asking me to add 2 pages next month so we can do Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year's pages.  Their wish is my command!  I'm so thankful to have fun ladies to stamp with. 

So check out My Layered Heat Embossing Christmas Lodge Card!

 
Sometimes, when you want to add a layer to your card, it's better to just layer your inks, or in this case your embossing!  I LOVE this technique.  So, first, I embossed the green tree direct on to my espresso colored cardstock.  Then I used versamark and white embossing powder and embossed the "Merry Christmas" right on top.  I love how the green and white work together and stay independent of one another.  For this one, I just added a glimmer paper star, and some self adhesive pearls, and yes kids, that's it!  Super fun, super easy and super impressive!  Yea!!!
