ACK!! It's the middle of July already!! That means it's time for our mid-month inspiration on the Crafty Hazelnut's Christmas Challenge Extra blog. It's Anything Goes (Christmas related, of course) all month long. This is an awesome way to get a jump on those Christmas cards. Here is my card:
The challenge from Mark's Finest Papers is to heat emboss your image in white on colored card stock and then highlight with the same color ink. It is very subtle, but I highlighted the "presents" banner in the sentiment and added some ink to the presents on the bottom. You can see it a little better in this next photo.
