Technique Tuesday 2

It’s time for another technique…today it’s emboss resist. This is one of the first techniques I ever learned, and it’s a good one! It definitely is a WOW.

This card was also made with the Love & Affection stamp set. 

Technique 2

The supplies you will need are as follows:
Whisper White Cardstock (#100730) $11.25
Embossing Buddy (#103083) $8.00
Versamark Pad (#102283) $11.25
White Embossing Powder (#109132) $6.75
Heat Tool (#129053) $40
*Classic Ink Pad colors of your choice  (Bermuda Bay, Emerald Envy, Cucumber Crush used)
Love & Affection stamp set (#141545) $20.00
Thoughtful Banners (#141614) $26.00
Delicate White Doilies (#141701) $4.00
Silver Metallic Thread (#138402) $4.00

Step One
Gently swipe embossing buddy across your white piece of cardstock.

Step Two
Randomly stamp your images over top using the Versamark pad. Sprinkle the white embossing powder over the entire surface and tap off excess. The powder will stick to the versamark ink.

Step Three
Use the heat tool to melt the powder.

Step Four
Once its cooled off (only takes a couple of seconds), use a sponge and start sponging ink* all over. (Put the sponge directly into your pad.) When you sponge onto your white embossed piece of cardstock, start from off the paper and work in so you don’t get a big dark spot when you start. Continue until you’re happy with the results.

Step Five
Buff your embossed images with a dry swiffer sheet (or even kleenex works). The embossing resists the ink you sponged over top. Beautiful right? Go ahead and finish your card now. Everyone will ask, “How’d you do that?”

Love & Affection

There is a new stamp set in the catalogue that’s called Love & Affection…very fitting for me this weekend. Not only is it Father’s Day, but my husband and I celebrate 28 years of marriage tomorrow. We are still very much in love and are excited about this journey we get to travel on together. Life is full of ups and downs, planned days and days that catch us by surprise, but I’m so thankful for someone who anchors me and is there through all of it.

So back to the stamp set. I have 2 quick and easy cards to share with you today…ones that you can mass produce in a little amount of time. And they would definitely put a smile on the recipient’s face.  They both have pieces of the coordinating Designer Series Paper (DSP) on them (Affectionately Yours #141632), but this first one features the stamp set…Love & Affection 1 The second one features the new coordinating embossing folders (Floral Affection #141713)…Love & Affection 2I have a third card to share with you, but I will keep it a secret until Tuesday.
