How about some more Simon Says Stamp STAMPtember goodness today? Clearly Besotted has joined up with Simon Says Stamp for the new Holiday Banners Stamp Set. A simple ink smooshing background with the gold embossed stamped banner makes a simple, but elegant design.

I filmed a video and accidentally deleted everything but the embossing. (insert unhappy face) So....no video for this card. Sorry! For more information on ink smooshing, check out THIS video or THIS one.

I stamped the banner and snowflake from the Holiday Banners Stamp Set on vellum using Versamark Ink and heat embossed the image with gold embossing powder. After heat set, I cut out the design with scissors.

I die cut watercolor cardstock using the largest Stitched Rectangle Die. I stamped the snowflake from the Holiday Banners Stamp Set on the rectangle using Versamark Ink and heat embossed the images with white embossing powder. I pressed Cracked Pistachio Distress Ink and Evergreen Bough Distress Ink on the Ranger Craft Sheet, spritzed them with water and pressed a scrap of acetate to the ink and pressed it to the embossed watercolor panel.

Once the ink dried, I stapled the vellum embossed banner to the watercolor panel with mint satin ribbon behind the banner and embellished the panel with gold sprinkles and mini pearls.
