Shaded Summer Emboss Resist Thank You Card. Technique Tuesday Blog Hop. July 2021

Good Afternoon Everyone,

Today I'm taking part in the Technique Tuesday Blog Hop and this month we are all concentrating on inks.

I knew instantly what I was going to do once I saw this theme - the Emboss Resist Technique. It's fun, pretty quick and you can get some amazing results.








Measurements

Basic Black Card Stock 

1pc - 4 1/8" x 11 3/4", scored at 5 7/8"

1pc - 1 1/8" x 11 3/4"

Basic White Card  Stock 

2pc - 5 5/8" x 3 7/8"

1pc - 1" x 11 3/4"


Take your large piece of basic black and fold along the score line. Add one of the pieces of basic white to the inside.

Rub an anti static tool across the larger piece of basic white, then stamp the floral image all over using versamark ink. Sprinkle it with clear embossing powder and make sure that you have a nice coverage. Gently tap off the excess. Heat set with a heat tool. The Powder will melt and become a smooth glossy finish. Let this cool. 

Repeat the process above with the thin strip of Basic White, stamping the Thanks for Biggest Wish and adding a floral cluster to either side.

On the larger panel, add some colour - I chose Mango Melody, Polished Pink and gorgeous Grape, but you can chose whatever combo you prefer. Start in the centre third adding polished pink ink with a brayer - start off lightly and just build uo the colour, then add gorgeous rape to one side and mango melody to the other. make sure you blend well where the colours meet to avoid harsh lines. Take a dry cloth and using gentle stroke, remove any of the ink that is 'sat' on the embosses areas.

Again, repeat this method of adding in to your thin sentiment strip, but just using Polished pink ink.

Layer this onto the strip of basic black card stock and ad diagonally to the larger inked panel. Trim the ends so its flush with the piece below.

Add to the card front.

Thanks for joining me today - please take a look at all the other people in the hop - there's tonnes of inspiration just waiting for you.....
