I tried using the alcohol and reinkers, but it covered the words a bit. I CAN'T get this technique to work (or any other emboss technique). I always have smudging or the ink doesn't come off the emboss. What am I doing wrong? Please help!
I used what I believe is the Gate Fold. I also used some of my new die cuts (Birthday present!!!)

The card looks great! I think it's okay to have some of the ink on the words.
When I have done this technique, I have had success with using a stipple brush to apply the ink and a sponge to wipe it off of the embossing. I love the way it looks and my stampers do to!

I love the colors and the layered flowers on this! When I've done emboss resist, it was with dye inks, not alcohol inks--I would think the alcohol inks WOULD stick to the ep more...but it sure does make a cool background on this!
