Thought I was done uploading 2016 christmas cards but I found some pics on my cell phone, so still continuing to update my gallery.
Well I always wanted a TK christmas stamp, and when I finally got one, I did not like the way it stamped. I felt like it did not stamp completely. I went through so many ways to get a clear complete image. Even down to sanding the darn stamp. I was bound and determined to make some cards with this stamp.
So the idea I came up with to hide the parts that did not stamp completely was to use an embossing folder and die cut an oval shape. I used some sort of glitter spray on the image that helped hide the imperfections. Finally worked! Pretty pleased with the final result.
Thanks for looking!

Yeah, I've had a couple stamps like that, where no matter what you do, a good impression is impossible. I think you were smart to show the part that finally worked out under the pretty oval panel. Nice holiday card!
