Stamp Set: Best Wishes & More
Ink: Rich Razzleberry
Cardstock: Pale Plum, Whisper White, Rich Razzleberry, Glossy White
Accessories: Wax Paper, Finial Press Textured Impressions Embossing Folder, Big Shot, Iron, tissue
This card uses a technique that is a modified version of the wax paper technique. With this technique you take a piece of wax paper cut down to the size of your Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. Instead of using cardstock through the embossing folder, use the wax paper...it will not be a "clean" impression as with cardstock but more of a "weathered" look. You then take glossy cardstock, place the wax paper (raised impression facing the glossy side) and a piece of computer paper over the top of that, iron a few seconds with iron set on no steam cotton setting. After ironing, peel off the wax paper from the glossy cardstock, you will see a slight impression left on your cardstock. Brayer any color you wish over the glossy cardstock to the intensity you wish. Take a tissue or paper towel, wipe off any extra ink, this will also take off any remaining wax residue, showing the white glossy beneath. Awesome looking background technique.
