Blackout embossing

 Blackout embossing

This is a dramatic card!  Don't remember who started this technique, but if you do please let me know so I can give credit.  To me this is a take on Joseph's coat technique.

supplies used:  Altenew 3D embossing folders Decorative florals, Tulip Bouquet

Instructions:

1.  run 3D embossing folder through Big Kick (machine of choice) to get impression.  For this technique you will be coloring on the debossed side.


2.  On the debossed side add color to the depressed image.  Spot coloring is all you are going to be doing for this technique.  Coloring doesn't have to be perfect.

3.  When done with coloring ... take black ink pad (dye ink preferred) and gently drag it over the card with the spot colored image. Cover the whole card with the black ink.

That's it!  The black ink will cover the background around the image, and just highlight the colored image.
Thank you for stopping by.  Come back soon.
