For Karen's Technique Challenge - we are inking our embossing folders on the inside, spritzing with water and embossing our card panel.
I made two cards today with the technique - You'll find my Sympathy card next to this one in my gallery.
I used an older text embossing folder from Tim Holtz/Sizzix for my Valentine - rubbing the Distress Oxide Ink over the top piece of the inside of the folder. I spritzed the inked folder with water and embossed the white card panel.
This folder is so busy - I just added a puffy heart sticker and layered the panel to a slightly larger black panel.
I love how this technique looks - some embossing folders, as well as colors, look better than others - so I find I have to try a few EF's and colors before I get a result I like the look of!
ETA: I did ink my EF but then embossed it - so this was not the technique for the TLC challenge! I did post a proper one here:

How fun & clever to use that embossing folder. Genius!
