I love using "weird" colors for Christmas!! This card is done with Almost Amethyst!! I used the Supersize Snowflake from the Holiday Mini Catalog--it's the size of a background stamp! Makes quite the statement, don't ya think?!! Anyway, I don't have all the craft pads (shame on me!!), so I improvised! First, ink your stamp in Versamark ink, then go directly to your Almost Amethyst pad, and ink it up! Then, stamp it on your white cardstock, and emboss with Irridescent Ice embossing powder! Very simple! Just remember to do your versamark first, then the color you want to use! If you do it the other way around, you're gonna end up with an awfully ugly versamark pad!! :-)
To make the sentiment, I just stamped the words in Almost Amethyst ink onto AA cardstock and punched it out with the Key tag punch! I used the stretchy silver cord around the card. This stuff is sooooo much better than the "old" cord we used to carry! Gotta have it!!
Enjoy your day!
