Embossed paper

[craftexplorer]

Once I have embossed cardstock what are some techniques that I can use on that paper to use on a card or on a scrapbook page

if you are talking about dry embossing your paper you can gently brush an ink pad over it to highlight the embossing. or brush a versamark pad over it lightly and then brsh on perfect pearls. HTH

The above are two great suggestions. Another is to lightly sand the embossed area to show the inside of the cardstock (whether white or a different colour.)

You can, also, use white cardstock and put ink onto the raised side of the embossing folder before running it through the machine. This gives a coloured raised design.

I've seen others put little glitter dabs onto raised flower centres of embossed card. You could use 3D glue, as well. Depending on your embossed design you might try colouring (with pencils, ink or paint) some of the areas, leaving some untouched.

These are a few more ideas you might like to try. Have fun!
