Crafty zoom - Debossing Inky Resist

Hi everyone, it's time for our Monthly Zoom post with the Group of Seven Crafters.

This month Julia found a technique which heat embosses white embossing powder on the debossed side of the embossing folder which creates an ink resist - Video:  Debossed Inky Resist (Anna-Karin Evaldsson via SplitcoastStampers)

 I did mine as a deboss and an embossed image and also used spray inks rather than ink pads. I wanted the deeper colour and to be able to add the colour quicker.

My first card is the Debossed side of the folder, you can see all the white embossed area and and the ink picked up of the trees. 

This card is the emboss side of the folder.

Crafty Zooming - Heat embossed background

Hi everyone, there's a new Crafty technique blog out there called Group of Seven. Every month we will check out a new or old technique and post our results.

This month it's a creative Heat Embossed background, Versamark was applied randomly over a piece of card stock. I used cling wrap for my cards and one colour of Embossing powder

Our Group of Seven consists of the following wonderful crafters.

Bonnie (Stamping with Klass)

Brenda (Inkspired to Stamp) 

Christine (It's a Card Day's Night) (me)

This is one I made adding shine and texture to black card which made for a pretty night sky.
