Celebrate Card

So here's the card we made using the technique I shared yesterday.  We inked up the embossing folder with Tangerine Tango and Strawberry Slush (sounds like the makings for a fruit salad).  Then spritzed the folder with water, pressed down the watercolor paper into the inked and spritzed area - voila - beautiful background for this fun Celebrate! card.  Some of the ladies inked the image side and got this look -

While others inked the negative side - and got this look - 

 

I like both looks - they're just different - but both fun, and every time it looks a bit different.  Thanks for stopping by ~Maureen

Technique 6x6 card

This month our club technique was stamping with embossing folders.   We used Watercolor Paper - although I've done this technique with Whisper White also and it works - just need to be a little more careful with drying the cardstock so the edges don't curl up.   Here are three samples (a little blurry - but you can get the idea) - the first with the dots inked and lightly spritzed - the second the dots inked and spritzed a bit more - and the final with the opposite side of the embossing folder inked and spritzed so you get the negative image of the dots.  Three looks - one technique.

Here's the actual technique card we made for the binders - with the instructions.

Try and let me know how your cards turn out.  Stop back next time to see the actual greeting card we made with this technique.  ~Maureen
