Do you own an animal stamps? Time to dig them out if you do! Any type of animal will do for this week’s challenge at Merry Monday! I hope you plan on joining us as we have lots of fun with our group and in store with you!


I started out by adding ink to my “Holiday Frame” embossing folder (retired) using my “Brayer” and “Craft White Ink” and running my cardstock through the “Big Shot Machine”. I then sprinkled with “White Embossing Powder” as this ink stays wet long enough to emboss and set with my “Heat Tool”:

Did you notice the red sequins? I used a red Permanent marker and colored my “Gold Sequins”:

- Cardstock: Real Red, Baked Brown Sugar, Coastal Cabana, Whisper White
- Inks: Craft White, Baked Brown Sugar
- Stamps: Joyous Celebrations (retired)
- Accessories: Real Red 1/4″ Stitched Grosgrain Ribbon, Gold Sequins
- Tools: Stampin’ Dimensionals, Big Shot Machine, Holiday Frame Embossing Folder (retired), White Embossing Powder, Heat Tool, Ovals Collection Framelits Dies, Mini Glue Dots, Paper Piercing Tool, Essentials Paper Piercing Pack
Make sure you visit my teammates on the Merry Makers team for inspiration this week!

Oh Debbie, this is luscious!!!!! I have never tried that technique with any Embossing Folder but this looks amazing. Can you please tell me which side of the EF did you ink? in the photo looks like you applied the ink to the "bottom" side?? It looks so beautiful, I'm drooling here.
Thank you for sharing.
Love the embossing! Great design with the little reindeer fitting perfectly in the middle. Have a great week!
Wow, this is great! Love the embossed white impression and that adorable little reindeer!
I absolutely love the embossing with the white craft ink. I have never tried that technique and it looks so good on your card. Great job with the challenge this week.
What a beautiful way to use this embossing folder, Debbie! It makes such an elegant frame for this sweet little deer! Wow!
Debbie, this is so lovely! I love how you brayered over the embossed frame – beautiful!
What a gorgeous creation….I love that white embossed background, it's just fabulous! And thanks for the tip about the sequins too!
Great card…even though I still cannot get used to seeing Christmas again! I love reindeer and always happy to see them….and love your treatment of the embossing folder and heat embossing…really a beautiful card all together!
Love your card, Debbie! The white embossed layer is just brilliant and how clever to color your sequins!
WOW! The heat embossed dry embossing is amazing Debbie. Haven't heard of that before. Stored! I love the red running throughout the card. Lovely.
Lovely elegant design Debbie, I like how you used the embossing die.
Beautiful card Debbie, I love the embossing and cute little deer.
Very pretty!
That trick of coloring the sequins with a permanent marker is brilliant! And it solves the problem of not having the right color. I love everything about your card the sparkly embossed debossed section, the cutie reindeer and the sequins. Great card!
Debbie, this is just gorgeous! The colors and the die cut frame are both wonderful!
Beautifully done!
Adorable card, Debbie! Love that cute deer and how you embossed the oval frame! The red sequins & bow pop on your card! Love it! 🙂
Wow! What a great card, Debbie! The inked and embossed background looks like an intricate die cut! Love how you featured your little deer too!
