I was strolling thru the gallery tonight, and came upon a term I really do not understand: EMBOSS RESIST. Could someone please tell me (in really plain English -- newbie to stampin here) what EMBOSS RESIST means and how you do it?
Hi,
You simply emboss an image with clear embossing powder. Once that is cool, you can add color using your inkpads to the paper. The embossed areas will resist the ink and the rest of the paper will pick up the ink color (you can wipe the top of the embossed areas, after applying inks) to enhance the effect)
Yes thank you! Now that makes sense and when I re-looked at the card I can understand how it was created. Tomorrow I will try to do one myself!!! woohooo playing again.
One thing to remember with this technique -- DO NOT use tinted embossing ink unless you want that color to be a permanent part of your card design! :rolleyes:
