I chose a Christmas inspiration so I could play with the Simon Says Stamp pepperberry set. It's an embossing folder and dies that cut 3 different berry bunches, then you can emboss them in the folder, for some nice dimension. I cut the berries, embossed them and used rustic wilderness and candied apple oxide inks to color them. The background was made by melting shabby white embossing enamel on the front. You apply the powder, then heat from the underside and it gives you a nice texture and sparkle. The panel was cut down, placed on the pure poppy card base and the berries attached. The sentiment was stamped, torn and popped up with foam tape. Here's my inspiration.
