adventure with more stuff Santa brought

Embossing paste is another new/not new product (new in the Stampin' Up! catalogs but not new in the crafting world) that I've recently added to my craft stash.  As suggested at Use Your Stuff, I used it today, along with the color challenge from Sunday Stamps:

stamp set - Lift Me Up; ink - Pear Pizzazz, Blushing Bride, Night of Navy; card stock - Soft Sky, Whisper White; Big Shot with Stitched Shapes framelits; Pattern Party decorative masks with Embossing Paste

And then, because I'm pretty partial to Jingle Belles, I had to use it for another Christmas card, too:

stamp set - Star of Light; ink - Versamark; Stampin' Emboss powder - Silver; card stock - Night of Navy; Pattern Party decorative masks with Silver Embossing Paste

The silver paste is thinner than the white and smudged under the mask a bit.  I wonder if I was supposed to stir it first?  Evidently I didn't watch enough videos on this product ;)
