Season of Joy with a kiwi kiss

What do you think of silver, chocolate chip and kiwi kiss on Christmas baubles? I have been playing with the idea of masking to make christmas baubles out of my square Season of Joy stamps - this is my first attempt.I cut out a large circle from scrap paper and then stamp Versamark ink through the centre of the circle. Take the scrap paper away to reveal a circle of stamped words ... fa la la la la, la la la la.
Dust liberally with silver embossing powder and heat it with my heat gun - instant silver baubles!
What do you think? I want to play with red cards and gold embossing ... I think that might look more impressive. Dont you love how I show you the cards that almost work ?
What you need to make a masked christmas bauble:
Stampsets: Season of Joy, Punches Three.
Cardstock: Kiwi kiss, chocolate chip, silver metalic.
Ink: Versamark, chocolate chip marker.
2 large/medium circle punches.
Silver embossing powder
Heat tool
Kiwi kiss tafetta ribbon
square scallop punch
Dimensional adhesive dots
A piece of scrap paper

  1. Thanks Sally, I find that masking adds another dimension to the use of your stamps. I used this stampset a lot last year and I am looking at new ways to use it.
