Hi there!
Welcome to Day 1 of the Simon Says Stamp Holiday Sparkle release blog hop! For all the inspiration, be sure to check out the Holiday Sparkle Gallery! Projects get added as they are posted so it’s one place to see it all!

My card today uses an embossing folder with a coordinating die called Antique Lamp! To make my card, I embossed the image with white paper. Then I die-cut the lamp using the coordinating die. You can color before you die-cut, but I die-cut then color. It’s completely up to you!
Copics:
Greens: G21, G24, G28, YG09
Reds: R35, R37, R39
Grays: C3, C5, C7
Flame: Y00, Y11, Y17, YR04
Candle: E41, Y00
Snow: B000

After coloring, I die-cut the snow pieces using the new Pawsitively Velvet paper. It adds a bit of texture and is super fun! I set my colored lamp aside to work on the background. To do this, I got another piece of white cardstock and ink-blended it with yellow and blue ink to create the glow from the lamp.

I then embossed the image again. To give my background more interest, I ink-blended again with a darker blue – this makes the snow pop even more! Then, I adhered my rainbow lamp over the embossed background. Since it’s embossed, you will know right where to add the lamp for perfect placement. I finished by attaching a sentiment strip from the Reverse Missing You at the Holidays Sentiment Strips.
