Holly and Crown of Thorns card


























Both of these wreath stamps are by Eureka and are meant to be used to create this dual image. Vellum seemed the best choice so that both images would show up. The holly was embossed in black embossing powder first, then colored in with water based markers on the back. The "Season's greetings" is stamped with dye ink. The under wreath of thorns was stamped in dye based brown and colored in with colored pencils.
The holly is reprsenting the birth of Christ, the thorns represent his death. There is an inside message to go with these stamps as well. These are some of the most unique stamps I've ever used.
