Be Merry Cards with Jessica

Our Emboss Resist technique challenge is open until Sunday at 11:59 PM PT

Good morning!  Jess here with a pair of CAS cards for our Emboss Resist challenge!

I started by stamping the Winter Big Scripty Words sentiments on white cardstock and heat-embossed them with white embossing powder.  Then on my first card I used a sponge dauber to apply circles of aged mahogany, candied apple, twisted citron, and pine needles Distress ink over the word.  I used first and second generation stampings to get the more solid and splotchier stampings and also added a few stampings of Yeti ink.  To finish the card I adhered it to a white card base and added a few iridescent pearls.


For the vertically oriented card I followed the same process but I used the Let’s Bokeh solid circle stamps and used pigment ink to stamp over the embossed sentiment!  I finished by trimming the card down and adhering it to a card base of Chili Pepper cardstock.

And that’s it!  You have a few more days to get crafty and enter Challenge 18!  Thanks so much for stopping by and have a fabulous day!
