For this card, I did some fancy heat embossing. It really adds that touch a class and elegance to Christmas cards. Don't let embossing scare you. Like anything else, practice does make perfect!

Beautiful and classy card,just like you Melanie!! I should of known you'd find a way to make your own paper with the gold embossing. Your right about the practice, I'm still trying to master the art of embossing to the level you've achieved. Thanks for sharing.
The heat embossing adds an elegance and I like watching the embossing powder heat up.

Those little stockings are so sweet. I like the richness of the cold with the pretty red and green paper you have used for them.
Heat embossing is such a fun technique to use. I love watching people's faces when I show them how to do it. It's a hoot when they rub their fingers over the embossed image to feel it and want to try it again and again. When I first started I had no heat gun and made do with a bare light bulb. It's a wonder I am not blind! lol
Thank you for sharing your beautiful work. An inspiring treat to see. :)
