The photo above shows you how nice and shiny I embossed with the Cherry Cobbler Ink. I'll show you how I did this below.
Start out with VersaMark Ink, any color of Classic Ink, cardstock, Clear Embossing Powder, Heat Tool and a stamped image of your choice:
Ink your stamp image in VersaMark Ink first and then without stamping, ink again with the colored ink. Stamp image:
Quickly sprinkle with Clear Embossing Powder. You want to do this before the ink dries:
TIP: Have you noticed in the photo above that I keep my embossing powders in a plastic Glad container? I also always keep a spoon inside the container when I put it away. This allows me to hold my cardstock piece over or inside the container and the loose powder falls right back in the container after I sprinkle with my spoon!
Heat set with your Heat Tool! Voila....colored embossed image!
Have a great day and come back tomorrow for Wacky Wednesday!
This is a great technique Debbie, one I use all the time. It works wonderfully.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the technique.... I wondered, does the stamping the VersaMark into the Stampin Up ink pad 'gum up' the SU ink pad?
ReplyDeletewonderful technique. Thank you
ReplyDeleteOh snap Debbie!! De javu!!1 I did this y'day with a NON surfer on a card!!! Then I decided it neede to be darker (don't think my Versa was juicy enuf!!) I used one of the new foam pads in Midnight Muse and NO need for Versamark as the new pads are sooooooo juicy!! Worked perfectly!! Thanks for the visual tute.
ReplyDeleteThanks for showing it so well...this is exactly how I love to do this. Like the idea of using our new pads to do this too...may have to try it!
ReplyDeleteFabulous idea !! Thank you so much for the heads up !!
