Today's project features the emboss resist technique. I have never done this technique before but it allows you to give your embossed images a multi-layered appearance. I did a very simple version of this technique in my card project today. I added a wash of ink to my embossed image using Stampin' Up!'s aqua painters. It really made my image pop and I love the varying depth of the ink saturation.
Project Dimensions:
Whisper White Notecards (pre-cut) at 5" by 7" scored at 3.5"
DSP strips cut at 1" by 5" then hand torn on each end

EMBOSS RESIST
Directions:
1) Stamp and heat emboss your image. Allow image to cool.
2) Apply ink directly to the paper (over and around the embossed image) using a sponge, brayer, or aqua painters.
3) Wipe the embossed image with a tissue to remove the excess ink.
