’tis the season

Faux Embossed Christmas CardThe fourth card in my 25 Holiday Cards Challenge uses the faux embossing technique explained by Alesha Wells. It’s a fairly simple look, but I like the effect. I tried adding another element on top, and it seemed like too much. Sometimes simple is best.

Here are the details on how I made him:

  • Background: Cherry Cobbler
  • Stamp Brush Set: Bulb from Tags Til Christmas in Cherry Cobbler with a Drop Shadow set to Blur: -6, Opacity: -50%, and Pixel Offset: x: 0, y: 0
  • Embellishment: ’tis the season from the Trim the Tree set
