You have to try this Resist Technique

This week the challenge at Sweet Stamps is : 
Christmas Resist
 
 
Each week we choose a winner from the challenge to win a $20 Shopping Spree at Sweet Stamps towards your purchase of rubber stamps. You can use any stamp for your card but if you use a Sweet stamp you receive two entries in the challenge.
Remember, you can only enter the challenge one time, those using Sweet Stamps images will get an extra drawing in the challenge. Please limit the amount of challenges to 10 (including ours)  You must link back to us in your blog post.
I used the following supplies:
 
Isn't this a great resist background? I started with an embossing folder and used ink over the background.
 Here is a couple pictures of the wax paper in the embossing folders and the glossy paper with the designs.
 I got two papers from each piece of wax paper one piece in front and one behind.
 I started by rubbing an ink pad lightly over the glossy paper and then went over the paper another time...I believe the darker the better

 I matted my image and then matted that on a doily I split in half and mounted in each diagional corner.
That yummy ribbon is from Really Reasonable Ribbon ~ the June ribbon of the month club assortment.
That wonderful Christmas paper is from Bo Bunny .
I hope you try this wonderful technique- it was so fun to play with.
