This is for today's TECHNIQUE LOVERS CHALLENGE # 310 - Heat Embossing on Dry Embossing. Well I apparently choose the wrong EF to try this on. LOL. I had such a time with the negative sections picking up the powder even though I did use the embossing buddy before I started.
This is also for today's CLEAN AND SIMPLE CHALLENGE # 104 - Rock & Roll. I could not decide if I wanted to be inspired by the technique to rock-n-roll an image or the title associated with music so I went with the music. I made this for my SIL who has been in a band for a few years now and while I have been resistant to his determination to go to practice bc it takes 2 nights of time from his family, his band is finally begining to get signed for performances. Still not sure if I like that or not either but he is my daughters husband and I love her. So this will be his Father's Day card. Hope you like it.

Well Neva you and I are on the same embossing folder wave length today. I had the same problem you did.......having the VM get onto my negative spaces...........after I put EP on it I took a cotton swab and gently removed the excess. I do that everytime I use EP and it works for all the colors.
Great card.

It's hard to make it in the music industry but hopefully your SIL is enjoying the process and will have some level of success. I'm sure he will love this special card, Neva!
