Merry Christmas to You!
by Melissa Rusk

Happy Weekend! I have a fun Christmas card to share with you all today using a great technique, let's get started!

For this technique you will need a rubber mat for your die cutting machine. I used the rubber mat and ran the Merry Christmas to You Ring die through to get the embossed image instead of die cutting. You will need to check on the plates that you need for your machine to do this, each one is a little different.

Then I die cut the Folding Tree in the center of the embossed ring. I glued some green glitter paper behind my die cut and embossed piece and then glued it all to a red card.

This technique is so fun and it's a great way to get even more out of your dies. Have you ever tried embossing with your dies?

Have a great weekend everyone!
