I've made this special card this morning with my new Power Poppy stamps....I just love them, the detail and design are wonderful... just me!!
So I also decided to use the Resistible Embossing technique Julie demonstrated last week. Not at all difficult and I can remember doing this many years ago - stamped the Countryside Bouquet with Versamark and embossed with clear EP. Then I colour the image with distress ink and wet paint brush and flicked a few splashes of pale blue. Then when it was dry I ironed off the embossing and welllaa!! a lovely effect. I just layered the card on blue and finished off with a Chocolate Baroque sentiment and little bow. I'm posting to the Power Poppy blog Peep of the Week.
Thanks for taking a peek Robyn
Inspire Me Monday: Resistible Embossing!
I love this card!! I've seen this technique before, but you mentioned something I've never heard of. You said you ironed off the embossing. Do you put a cloth over it, or maybe a piece of paper? I wonder how much it changed the appearance of the artwork. How ever you did it the card is beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing your talent.
ReplyDeleteOh, my gosh, this is amazing! You did such a beautiful job with this oh, so lovely bouquet. Julie's tutorial was wonderful, wasn't it? I've never done emboss resist with a line image before, but it produces gorgeous results. I'm so happy to see this fabulous card in our Peep of the Week Challenge!
