Embossed background and pastel shades with Beata

Hi everyone!

I hope you have a great Saturday ahead of you. I have another Christmas inspiration for you today, in which I used novelties from the release Crafty Meraki. As I promised earlier, I'm trying to show a slightly different, softer side of Christmas. That's why today's inspiration is also mainly based on soft, pastel bright colors.
To start with, I prepared a card base. I reached for white paper to keep the whole thing just in light tones. Then I prepared a rectangle cut from the same paper as the base of the card, but I made it a little smaller so that the base could be seen underneath.


And now it's time for one of the interesting processes when making this card. Namely, I prepared an "Under the Mistletoe" stamp and applied hot embossing ink to it. Then I followed it on the prepared piece of paper and covered it with transparent embossing powder. In this way, after heating the powder, I obtained beautifully shiny frosted designs on a white piece of paper. Such an effect would also work perfectly for winter and Christmas inspiration. However, my idea was a bit different. I chose several colors of Oxide inks and made shading in mint and turquoise tones, and then wiped the entire background with a dry cloth, so that the patterns prepared by transparent embossing remained white and created a fantastic pattern. This method can be used in many ways, including on colored paper.


The next step was to prepare the aged edges of the background using scissors. In my opinion, this gives a very interesting effect, which does not require the use of punches and is easy and quick to prepare.
Then, to lighten the background a bit more, I added parchment paper over it, which makes the background visible, but looks like it is behind a fine mist. This will allow the stamps, which will be prepared in a moment, to stand out better.
I decided to reach again for the wonderful "Festive Frolic" stamp set. It is definitely my favorite among the sets from the new release. Therefore, you will certainly see it more than once on my inspirations. This time I turned the Christmas tree into a frosty iced tree, which blended in perfectly with the whole coposition. I also chose two characters to dress the Christmas tree. Using this set you can create amazing Christmas scenes.


The lettering I used is from the "Gilded Holiday Greetings" set, while the stars on top can be found in the "Jingle Jewels" set.
In addition, I still wanted to draw your attention to the gorgeous crystals that decorated my card. They are "Meraki Sparkle Rose Pink" and placing such crystals on inspirations will make it easier for you with the irreplaceable "Bling Buddy Embellishment Wand tool". Be sure to take a peek at the website and look for this tool.

I hope I managed to inspire you. I wish you a lot of creativity and a wonderful Saturday and the rest of the weekend.

Hello everyone I know this is not the topic to be discussing here but with what I Have been through and my bad experience, I want everyone be careful and stop being deceived by all these brokers and account managers, they scammed me over $900,000 of my investment capital, they kept on requesting for extra funds before a withdrawal request can be accepted and processed, in the end, I lost all my money. All efforts to reach out to their customer support desk had declined, I found it very hard to move on. God so kind I followed a broadcast on how scammed victims can recover their fund, I contacted them and provided the neccesary requirement, I got feedback after some hours and I was asked to provide all legal details concerning my investment, I did exactly what they instructed me to do without delay, to my greatest surprise I was able to recover my money back including my profit which my capital generated. I said I will not hold this to myself but share it to the public so that all scammed victims can get their funds back. Chat Them on Email:jamesmckaywizard at gmail dot com or what’sapp +31657446248.

At this point in life, bad situation emerge for us to learn our mistakes and figure out what next is to be done. I’m really delighted I eventually found a real competent hacker after been spammed by several sham hackers I followed their Bogus recommendation. Never knew that my wife Had a son out of wedlock without informing me about it for almost 12years of our relationship until I noticed she picks strange calls on her phone and send some money to strange man. As much as it is inappropriate to spy on one’s spouse phone it’s also necessary to be sure that your relationship is in perfect shape. All my gratitude goes to this Genuine GeniusHacker-:jamesmckaywizard at gmail dot com who got to clone/hack her phone completely to the extent that I had a clone of her phone and could read all her whatsapp & amp;Facebook message, call logs text message and GPS to know where and what she is always up to. I’m really grateful for this great experience, it really helped me find out the truth about my marriage. They are also specialize on hacking and recovery of lost funds, kindly send a message if you’ve experience any of these issues..Email: jamesmckaywizard at gmail dot com or WhatsApp +31657446248. Kindly reach out to them and thank me later.
