Here's what I made today:
I tried untraditional colors for the baubles. I stamped with pigment ink and clear heat-embossed the images to give a shiny look to the baubles. The little patterns and the sentiment were heat-embossed with gold. I drew strings with my gold metallic pen.
The front panel was directly adhered to the card base, so it's a mail-friendly card. 😊
