For the background, I got out my gel press and put some acrylic paint on it, then swiped the paint over it using an old credit card to get this look. It kind of reminds me of a sunset :). Then I stamped the sentiment into Versamark and then added white embossing powder so it would stand out on the black. I am entering this in the following challenges this week:
Crafting by Designs - Silhouettes
Christmas at Sweet Stampers - Anything Goes
Cute N' Crafty Christmas - Challenge #7
Watercooler Wednesday - All About Occasions
Little Red Wagon - Love it (I am totally in love with this Christmas die!)
