The House That Stamps Built-Designer Choice Challenge

This week is was my turn to pick the Designer Choice Challenge for
The House That Stamps Built, I went with anything but a card
with the option of Christmas with the hope of seeing the
Christmas projects everyone is working on.
 
Here are a few of mine:
 
I was actually addressing a Christmas card and looked at it
and thought, this would make a pretty ornament, cut it up
and this was the result. 

Image colored with watercolor pencils,
 background with Copics.  Embossed with
clear embossing powder twice.
 

Colored same as above, also clear embossed
twice, this deepens the colors.
 
Join in the fun and you might be the winner of a $25 Repeat Impressions
Gift Certificate.  Cards made with a Repeat Impressions stamps get an
extra entry. See discount code on my sidebar.

Love your lighthouse ornament - and that would make an awesome gift as well. You did a great job on the glass ornament as well as the other two. Fun challenge.
