Technique: Emboss Resist, Video

Hello! It’s Nicole, again; and today I’m sharing another video using an Emboss Resist technique. I’ll be working with the beautiful flower image stamp set, ElegantFlowers. This is a great addition to my collection because of its versatility. These images can be used for many occasions—and they can be used for card making, tag making, and even scrapbooking layouts.

Tools Needed:

Distress ink (any colors will work, but I’m using: Antique linen, Peacock Feathers, Vintage Photo, and Peeled Paint)
Foam applicators
Versa Mark Watermark Ink
Stamps
Embossing Powder (White)
Mini Mister (optional)
Card base (A2)
Panel (Size: 4” x 5 ¼”)

I hope you enjoyed the video! If you’d like to share your creations using your awesome SSS stamps, and this emboss resist technique feel free to do so by joining the Sweet Stamp Shop Flickr group. You can click here to view all the amazing creations using SSS stamps.

Sweet Tooth Tuesday - Emboss Resist

Happy Tuesday everyone! Danielle Pandeline here with a Sweet Tooth Tuesday Video.  Today, I am going to show you how to use an Emboss Resist technique to create a fabulous colorful background.  For my card today I used the Distressed Chevron background stamp. I just can't get enough of this stamp, it is very versitile.


TA-DA! Isn't this an AMAZING Ombre effect. I just can't get enough of playing with watercolors lately. It's a HUGE stress reliever for me.

And for the sentiment I used Spin Me from the June Release.

Here are the steps:
1)Use a piece of Watercolor Paper
2) Pick a Background Stamp
3) Stamp in Versamark Ink
4) Apply Embossing Powder
5) Tap off Excess
6) Heat with Heat Gun
7) Apply Watercolors, Shimmer Sprays or Color Mists (your choice)
8) Wipe excess color from embossed image
.....and your done! You now have a colorful background to use on your card.

Here are a few other cards I made using the same technique and Heidi Swapp Color Shine (Best sprays EVER!)
