Papertrey Posse August Parade of Blogs

It's been awhile - I've missed posting. My craft room is currently extremely disorganized, but I did find time to create a card for our August Parade of Blogs.

This month our hostess Keva challenged us to make a project using our favorite technique, or to find a new one and try it.

I've wanted to try embossing resist for a while, and I thought this was the perfect time to try it.

I stamped the large flower from Friends 'til the End in VersaMark and heat embossed with clear embossing powder. I sponged Fresh Snow ink on with a paper towel and rubbed it in really good as I moved outward to get a really nice feathered look. It looks much better IRL. I stamped the sentiment from Big & Bold Wishes and matted the focal point on Plum Pudding Bitty Dot Paper. Lastly I added a Plum Pudding Button with Rustic Jute button twine.

I really like this technique - I've already used it a couple more times since I made this card.
