I hope you're enjoying my Quick & Easy Last Minute Christmas Cards! We're right in the middle of the series with my third card. Two more to go!
I normally don't say this, but DO NOT buy the stamp set & dies together as a bundle! The Wise Men Tidings Dies are 50% off now, so it's actually cheaper to list the stamp set & dies on your order separately. It'll save you $9!
I heat embossed the wisemen with gold emboss powder from the Metallics Stampin' Emboss Powders. I love the shine on them. If you don't want to take the time to heat emboss, you can stamp them onto the Crumb Cake cardstock with Crumb Cake ink.

Isn't that dry embossed frame beautiful! It was made with the Merriest Frames Hybrid Embossing Folder. It includes the embossing folder AND dies! I didn't use the dies this time, though...just the folder.
This embossing folder & die set is NOT retiring, but it is going to go away for a few months. If you want it now, you'll need to order it by January 3, 2022. It'll be back in July, 2022 when the new Holiday Mini comes out.
Here's a look at the inside of the card. Just two stamps with two ink pads, and you're done!
