Unusual Christmas Card

Recently I bought a Spellbinder 3-d embossing folder.  Playing around with it, I came up with this.

I wish you could see the detail in the embossing better.  It is really beautiful.
I experimented with several inks but finally used Tea Dye distress ink to first ink the embossing folder  and then run it through the Cuttlebug with a piece of Buff Ivory in the inked folder.  A Copic #E70 gave similar color to the berries and pine cones after it was embossed.  There are so many colors of twine in the Kraft Outlet store.  I love the Earth Hemp Cord and used two strands to wrap around and tie a bow.  The base of the card is Light Kraft. 
The challenge at the Kraft Journal is CAS Christmas card.  Give it try this week.  We would love to see your entries.
