Welcome friends to the June 2015 Creative Inking Blog Hop! I'm so happy you stopped by. Isn't Amber talented? Love her work! Our theme for June was to pick our favorite stamp set from the 2015-2016 Stampin' Up! annual catalog. That was a tough one! I finally decided to use the stamp set named Garden in Bloom. What a fun set! I used a technique called emboss resist. I heat embossed the flowers with Versa Mark and white embossing powder on white cardstock. I then used sponge daubers inked in Watermelon Wonder and Blushing Bride to color the background. Then, with a clean cloth, wipe away the excess ink on the embossed flowers. The flowers just pop off the cardstock! I hope you give this technique a try!
Thanks for stopping by! I'd love for you to leave a comment and let me know what you think.
