For today's Inspiration Challenge, Kia has us looking at RealFabric.com and their Pinterest boards.
I was inspired by the Simply B & W fabric in the 2nd row all the way to the right here.
I inked the debossed side of the embossing folder with black ink, laid a panel of white card over the inking, closed the Embossing folder and ran it through my Big Shot.
The black ink only covered bits of the background so I cleaned the black ink off of the folder, wiped it dry and inked the debossed side again with Salvaged Patina Dox ink - carefully put the embossed panel back in the inked Emb Folder to match up with the impression and ran it through my Big Shot again and somehow it worked!
I love the mix of black and patina that it shows. The ink still didn't cover the whole background - but I'm very pleased with the results!

Thanks for telling us the process you used for this FABULOUS card.
I just love how the inks blended a little and left such gorgeous shading on the flowers.
