Embossed Christmas cards for Paper Rose

Compensated affiliate links may be used - these are at no extra cost to you. I appreciate your support! 

 Today, I'm sharing a pair of Christmas cards for Paper Rose Studio.

I started with a piece of plum coloured cardstock, which I sprayed with water before embossing it with the "Sweet vines 3D" embossing folder. I then dipped my finger in gold Hero Wax from Hero Arts and rubbed it over the raised areas of the embossing. I cut the panel in half and adhered the two pieces to two white, top folding card bases.  

I cut the Big Joy metal die from gold mirror cardstock and adhered the letters to one of the cards, along with a narrow strip of the mirror cardstock bordering the embossed panel. I added another strip of mirror cardstock to the other card, before stamping the Merry Christmas Bold Script sentiment and embossing it with gold embossing powder.
