I knew when I bought this embossing folder that I would use it for this month's theme. The gold ink was direct to paper lightly over the embossed image, then trimmed to fit. In order to fit the Merry Christmas stamp on the "label", I ran a small strip of white CS through the folder again and cut out the "label" portion, then stamped it and glued it in place. I did try to use embossing powder to bring out the words, but the EP didn't take on the pigment ink as well as it should, so I outlined the letters with gold gel pen.

This is a beautiful EF and I love it with the gold on it. You did a great job just getting the gold ink on the embossed pattern. I always get it on the CS everywhere. The sentiment piece is really nice centered on the dots!
