Sept Dry Embossing with Re-inkers Watercoloring

Time for our Group of Seven Cardmakers September Dry Embossing

Click on link above for all the technique details and card samples by the cardmakers:-)


The Video is a must see!!!!

I began by creating 6 backgrounds using Distress Ink Re-inkers, 
I finished 4 backgrounds into cards and I am saving the other backgrounds
 for future cards:-)

I loved all 4 cards,  but I think this is my favorite:-)

I went step by step following exactly the video for each background!!!

Card #1 Supplies
Stamps: None
Paper: Fluid 100 Hot Press Watercolor Paper,  Neenah Solar White Crest Smooth 5" square cardbase.
Inks: Distress Ink Refills: Wilted Violet,  Broken China, Tumbled Glass Scattered Straw. VersaFine Clair Nocturne Pigment Ink.
Accessories:Glass Mat,  # 12 paint brush,  Spellbinders "Beautiful Blooms" 3D EB Folder.  STAMPlorations HUGS Die.  Craft Foam to pop up image. Connect Glue.

TIP:  I used a different Black Pigment Ink,  but did not work well.  I ordered Versafine Clair Nocturne Pigment Ink from Amazon and received it quickly:-)  I used the Nocturne over my 1st try and I got a sharp Black image...  Again...follow the video and you will have awesome results!!!!!

TIP:  I used the tip in the video to use paper towels and rubbing alcohol to clean the black ink off the 3D EB Folder.  It worked great..just be sure to have enough paper towels handy.  You can control the messiness:-)
