(Last Minute) Christmas In July

Here I am at the last possible minute with my entry for Tis The Season Stamping's challenge.  It's a color challenge this week, and I did my best to hit the mark.

I made some gold embossing paste to stencil my background, but my pistachio looks a little dark compared to theirs.

Soooooo obsessed with stencils and embossing paste right now.  I also used dry embossing and gold ink on the edge of the card, since the paste was kind of matte, which I wasn't expecting. It looked shimmery when it was wet.  Oh well.

I'm just entering two challenges with this card:

• Tis The Season Stamping - #21 Vanilla, Gold and Pistachio with the option of Stencils 1/1
• Crafty Hazelnuts Christmas Extra - Anything Christmas Goes

Thanks so much for looking and happy crafting.  Laters!
