For the first time I tried this technique that girlgeek101 has demoed in a video (thank you!!). It's a fabulous technique and I love how it turned out! Dabbing ink on your embossing folder, spritzing it, and laying your card on top of that. After it dries you can stamp on top of the design on your paper (if desired).
Linking to TLC482 and CC479 (I didn't have pistachio or cantalope, so I had to use coral and spring moss ),

I was just stunned when I saw this. What an incredible job you did crafting this. Fabulous example of embossing folder ink technique (beautiful fade). Very dramatic card.

So gorgeous! I can see you used your day off for having fun. I am most definitely going to have to try this technique. It really shows of the embossing folders in a different way!
