This card uses a wooden stamp which I bought earlier in the year in a sale. I originally bought this stamp for some scrapbook pages I was going to make of my recent trip to London.
I came across this stamp again and thought it would also be a good theme for New Year cards with its wonderful collage image. And here is what I have come up with.
The stamp has been inked and heat embossed with some cosmic shimmer sparkle embossing powder.
the main backing sheet is from DCWV and the little piece is from Hot of the Press. I chose this paper because it is from a travel pad and has lots of different countries names written on it. I thought it represents everybody celebrating the same thing.
I have used a black rosette(made from a Tim Holtz die) and layered a sentiment on it from Little claires.
I am entering this card into the following challenges:

Paper Sundaes challenge #100 - celebrate
