Ingredients:
Stamp: Snow Swirled
Cardstock: Whisper White, Gold Metallic, Basic Black
Ink: Basic Black, Versamark
Basic Black Grosgrain ribbon
1 1/4 inch round punch

I didn't have black embossing powder
and I also dislike how it goes all over
the cardstock especially white,
so this is what I do to keep my cardstock clean.

Ink up on versamark and then basic black
this makes your dye ink a temporary
pigment ink image.
If you are doing multiple images you will have
to clean your stamp each time.
I use a dedicated versamark pad for this so
of course it isn't clean after that treatment

I had to try gold embossing and black

Testing to see what works
gold embossed disc

Testing black embossed disc

When I attach ribbons to my card I normally
put the double sided tape on the cardstock.
I always line it up using my craft mat,
more often if I dont line it up it's always
crooked, then its hard to remove the ds tape

As a rule I also adhere the ribbon to
the card if it isn't on top of a layer
then I cut it, I have cut it prior and
it has been short after I tape it down.
Not nice and too hard to fix

What a mess!!
Uh Oh I didnt even take a photo of the finished card
hahahahaha
ok it's going to appear first in the post
blogspot is weird like that

Hi Bridget; I love this card - the SnowSwirled tree is fabulous. I love the mess picture because it's where we all end up. It makes me laugh thankfully to think out of all those bits and pieces we might end up with just one BEAUTIFUL card! The fun is in the making though.
