How darling is this! I wanted to make a cute little gift that I could easily pass along to special people this month and this is it!
I took my images from our Trick or Treaters stamp set and colored them in with my Copic Markers and Prismacolor Pencils.
I stamped them on white cardstock. Punched them out with my Blue Clever Lever Circle punch and stippled black ink around the edges.
Next I punched out a piece of black cardstock with my Pink Scallop Clever Lever Punch. You can see that I embossed our Fabulous Flourishes on my black cardstock with my VersaMark Pad and Transcendence Embossing Powder.
Then I attached my image to the black cardstock with Pop Dots.
Isn't he darling! I was going to attach these pieces onto peppermint patties ... but I couldn't bring myself to do it! I didn't want the images going straight to the trash can after the candy was gone. {smiles}.So instead ... I pulled out these little black tins that I had found at our local discount store. They were 2 for $1.00 so I grabbed a few sets. I attached a Pop Dot and then my image.
Isn't this darling! And harder to throw away ... I hope!
All that I had left to do was fill with goodies and then deliver to someone special. A simple little treat that lets someone know that they are thought of!
Happy Paper Crafting!'

I actually picked this up from Julie Griffith. Julie is known (by us at TAC) for her embossing! She does it in a such a subtle and classy way ~ I've started and can't seem to stop! It's a little detail that adds SOOOO much!

I was so inspired by your black on black embossing! I just love it and finally made a card myself doing it. Yippee!! :)
