TLC340 ~ Embossed Kisses ~ (8/29/11)

[joan ervin]

Hello everyone...it's my turn to host today's TLC and this weeks challenge has come to us from the very talented Susan Roberts...it's called Embossed Kisses!!! She created a tutorial for this technique on her blog...check it out!!

Here are the deets:
1. Ink up a solid stamp ( no lines or designs allowed) such as a heart, bird, pumpkin....anything will do as long as it's solid.
2. Ink up the popped out side of an embossing folder
3. Stamp the solid stamp on the embossing folder to create a "kiss" on the solid stamp
4. Stamp on cardstock.
5. One variation would be to stamp your inked up solid stamp on the popped out side of the embossing folder that has no ink...you will get a light color to the design when you stamp on paper.
6. You can even mist the embossing folder with water for a watercolor look.
7. Have fun!!!

Edit: Bev (Maxell) came up with a way to join in the challenge even though she didn't have any solid stamps. She used a diecut flower and kissed it with the embossing folder....way to go, Bev!!!

Here is Bev's card Kissed by the Sun

This looks so cool! Love the results I've seen so far. I should have time this afternoon to give this a try. If it works, I think it will be something I would use a lot. Thanks Joan & Susan! BBL

Here is my card for today's challenge! I had quite a time with this technique. In the end, I changed by image, ink color and type of ink. Like how this turned out though. paisley inspired by skitter - Cards and Paper Crafts at Splitcoaststampers

I really liked this technique. I just wish I had more solid stamps... This was a lot more fun than doing the regular kissing technique- stamp to stamp.
