I have several stamps by Mark's Finest Papers that have gone out of business, and I decided to pull them out and make a couple of Christmas cards this week. This is one of my favorites and it reminds me of an old lithograph. I heat embossed the sentiment, which is a stamp by Papertrey Ink and added a little bit of bakers twine along the top. The focal point is stamped with Night of Navy by Stampin' Up. This would be a good design to mass produce for Christmas.
