The new Holiday Wishes Frame STAMPtember set from Avery Elle is one of those simply classic sets where all you have to do is stamp and colour to get a card with great impact. Avery Elle isn’t the only one releasing a STAMPtember set though, scroll down to check out the Hero Arts set too! I’ve linked all supplies with compensated affiliate links used where possible at no cost to you.
SIMPLY CLASSIC
I always find it difficult to photograph metallic heat embossing from above. The colour and beautiful shine of the embossing just isn’t catching the light at this angle. However, in-person, the antique gold embossing shines a lovely rich, warm gold and made watercolouring over the top so easy.
I kept the paint concentrated close to the sentiment panel and then washed it out over the leaves. I kept the leaves green because, well I love green but also because I wanted to add hints of red on the candy canes and then I bought in the traditional yellow of the poinsettia centre in the berries around the edges.
As for the sentiment panel, I stamped it again and then trimmed it out and foam mounted it on top. I added a few pearls and droplets to finish off.

Summary of the project which gives all the views of the card in one photo :D I’d love if you pinned and called by on Pinterest :D
I do think you have made this image quite exquisite with your unique coloring. I really like this fairly simple and traditional looking stamp a lot.
