Happy Birthday with Emboss Resist Ink Blending

August 24, 2019

Hello, I hope you’re having a wonderful day!  Seeka here and today I’m sharing a card the fun Presents Background Stamp. This is the same stamp set that I used to create a card for this month’s Stretch Your Stamps challenge.

I started by using Clear Embossing & Watermark Ink and white embossing powder to heat emboss the background stamp onto watercolor paper.  Then I got out ink blending tools and blended four colors of Distress inks onto the background.  I started at the top with Picked Raspberry and then blended my way downwards through Worn Lipstick, Ripe Persimmon, and Carved Pumpkin.

While the background was drying, I stamped the sentiment from the Birthday Hugs and Kisses stamp set in black pigment ink onto heavyweight vellum.  Then I used Ultra Fine clear embossing powder to emboss the sentiment.  

To assemble the card, I added small dots of glue behind the letters in the sentiment and then adhered the sentiment strip onto the background.  Finally, I adhered the background onto a card base.

Thank you so much for visiting!

    Wish you had more videos to show how these pieces are made and what techniques are used.
