chalkboard christmas {lawn fawn}

Hi there! Lawn Fawn's October inspiration week is coming to a close. Today, we're showing off newly released dies for older sets, including one of my all-time faves - Cozy Christmas.

With the new dies, this card was fairly easy to pull off (I only say fairly because I have a bad track record with heat-embossing. I hate uneven looking white embossing!) I stamped and heat-embossed all of the elements onto a single sheet of black cardstock. Then, I used a red inktense pencil to add little pops of color. Just in case you were wondering, I did try to color the little flame in orange, but he looked so weird. Re-stamp, re-emboss, re-cut. He looks much better as he is.

I used Lawn Fawn's Yeti ink to add some white highlights to the mail black panel, so it could look more like a chalkboard. Everything was mounted onto it with foam squares. The different heights add so much interest to an otherwise simple card design.

I hope you like it!  There's more to see on the Lawn Fawn blog today - click!
