CHRISTMAS TREE CARD
I saw a card with this technique on Pinterest and it really intrigued me. She used this embossing folder from Stamping Up. I just had to have this embossing folder to try this technique. When I first saw it, I wondered how in the world she got the stamped image behind the birch trees. Well, you stamp the embossing folder first and then run it through the your machine.
I still need some practice and more stamps that will work, but I wanted to share with you the idea. Isn't it fun. This could be a quick Christmas card if you have a lot to make. The birds are from a Martha Stewart punch, the large trees are Impression Obsession and the tree scene in the background is from Memory Box. Would love to hear your thoughts on this technique.

I love the stamped background you used. Wonderful card. I have the embossing folder and have tired a few cards using this technique. Fun, but it does have a learning curve.
Lovely card Joan!!! Did a version of this last year...will send you the pic (if I can find it - LOL)! It was a really FUN card to make!

so I am curious what happens to the ink from the stamped image when you emboss it. It looks like a little might still be on the card stock but not much. interesting. I have this so will have to try it also.
What a great technique! I love it! And I love your finished card. I am going to take a stab at this technique and try to create a Christmas scene as one of my Christmas projects. Hope it turns out as nice as yours. Thanks for sharing it, Joan!
Beautiful card! I got this folder too... it's a great design! Just barely fits through my Cuttlebug though.
Very cute card. Edna
