Technique Tuesday 45-2019

Technique Tuesday is about trapped emboss resist.  A tutorial by Jennifer McGuire show how to do this technique can be found here.

This is my take on the technique.

I started with a patterned paper from a 6 x 6 pad by Authentique called Quest. I have so much patterned paper and cardstock that I really don't take the time to make my own backgrounds.  I used Versamark ink and stamped a large Peony by Unity and then used clear embossing powder on it.  After heat setting it, I blended Gina K Navy dye ink all over the patterned paper and rubbed it off the embossed part with a dry paper towel.  It made the pattern really pop but it is hard to tell that it is a flower.  It might have shown better with a more subtle pattern.  I added the sentiment and matted it on a solid color. - Denise
