Ornament Keepsakes

 I've been having a little fun playing with the Holiday Occasions stamp Set Ornament Keepsakes and the matching Framelits Die Set Holiday Ornaments. 

This first card is embossed with Very Vanilla Embossing Powder on Cherry Cobbler Cardstock and then cut out.  I layered it onto DSP from the Festival of Prints Paper Stack.  This is such a great value for card makers!  the papers are 4 1/2 by 6 1/2.  You get 4 each of 12 double sided pages that's 48 sheets in 24 patterns for $6.95.  Many of them are not even so Christmas looking that they couldn't be for birthday or other occasions!  All of the papers on this post are from this stack.

The center card is not embossed rather I used the new metallic markers to color on the rubber.  It gave it a nice touch to have the ornament cap shiny.  

    This Baja Breeze is a great example of a non traditional card color combination.  I used the Early Espresso Embossing powder on Baja and sponged with the Island Indigo.  This card is quite dramatic looking in person.
