After seeing a few examples of letterpress using PTI's Impression plates, including the great explanation by Pine, I wanted to give it a try!
I was pretty happy with the result. I used some chalk ink by Colorbox. Have you had good results using different kinds of inks?
Here's a close up:
Do you think these could work as Christmas cards? Any suggestion where I could add the sentiment...I didn't want to cover up any of the front.
Thanks for looking!

Gorgeous!!! You could add a tag with a sentiment, or just leave as is, which I would probably do. Love this.
Stunning!! this turned out really pretty Melissa!so impressive!
Gorgeous!!! I don't really love floral prints but this is fabulous.
Lovely! You could use some of the ribbon sliders to put a sentiment where the ribbon is already covering or just do an inside sentiment!
Stunning cards Melissa! How about on the inside?
Beautiful!! I don't think a small sentiment tag would cover up too muc hof this lovliness. How about a small oval sentiment over the ribbon or near it or ribbon sliders like Belinda said.
Gorgeous! A tag hanging from the ribbon or a slider would be pretty
Gorgeous!
One year I embossed the sentiment right on the ribbon with white e.p for my New year's cards..why not try that?!
These are lovely. I would put the sentiment on the inside.
Oh, these are so neat, Melissa! You cold hang a sentiment on a tag from the center of the bow.
