Create a striking gaming-themed card featuring embossed silver text on black cardstock. The design showcases the bold sentiment 'Eat Sleep Game Repeat' alongside retro gaming icons including controllers, food, beds and repeat symbols in vibrant rainbow colours. Using heat embossing techniques, you'll achieve a professional raised metallic finish that catches the light beautifully.
Position the gaming icons stamp centrally on your black card square using your stamping platform. Use magnets to hold the card in place.
