Welcome back to Imagine's blog. Today, I am going to show everyone how you can get more out of your embossing folders by adding some ink!
Skill Level: Beginner
Time: Approximately 30 minutes
Directions:
Step 1
Create your card base by taking a piece of white cardstock measuring 10" x 7" and score it down the middle at 5".
Step 2
To create the colored embossed background, you will need the folder you chose. I am using the Leafy folder with VersaMagic Dew Drop in "Hint of Pesto" and "Tea Leaves".
Step 3
Simply take the ink and wipe and/or dab it all over the folder.
Step 4
Once you are done run it through your diecut machine so the ink is pressed onto the paper. The beauty of this is that you can additional colors and simply add more color if you want a darker look.
Step 5
You will mat your background onto a piece of cardstock. I chose Putty to go along with the greenery. I am showing the mat before the color for better visibility.
Step 6
Use a Wood Flourish Frame
Step 7
Using your Dew Drop like a dauber simply sponge on some color this will bring out the green background.
Step 8
Add a diecut for the focal point, along with a sentiment to complete the card.
