Join Kelly today as she creates holiday cards inspired by monochromatic jewels.
“Monochromatic or tone on tone stamping is often used for subtle or soft details, but today I’ve used it to create a trio of dramatic jewel inspired holiday cards! By adding heat embossing and lots of sparkle over the die cut frames, I was able to achieve the look of jewels and gemstones! I’ve also used some mixed metallics to enhance the monochromatic colors! Head over to my blog to find out how I created these cards as well as some troubleshooting tips on using intricate dies!”
