Heat Embossed Cardinal

Squeaking in under the wire for the 52 Christmas Card Throwdown "Heat Embossing" challenge!

I used an older Inkadinkado stamp that works really well for solid heat embossing.

I stamped with Versamark and then heat embossed with a mix of copper and sparkly gold embossing powders.  I fussy cut the image.

I had a piece of copper sprayed cs in my UFO box so stamped and heat embossed the sentiment on it and trimmed it down into a square for the background.

I taped the fussy cut image onto it, and added a border of copper glitter cs.

Now it's finished I'm wondering if it is too monotone.  What do you think?

Supplies:

Stamps - Inkadinkado bird / ornament, PTI sentiment

Ink - Versamark

Paper - white cs, copper glitter cs

Size - 4.75" square

Accessories - copper spray, a mix of copper and sparkly gold embossing powder
