Good Morning Stampers!

This is one of the cards the ladies will be making at the New Techniques class on Wednesday, 3 February.  The technique is called  Reverse Textured Embossing (I think!)  It's where you ink up the textured embossing folder, insert card stock and then feed it through the Bit Shot.  This is what comes out. 

For this technique, I used Melon Mambo  on Whisper White card stock.  I really liked the way it came out.  It doesn't show in the photo but there are variations of the color throughout the front.    NOTE:  When brayering the embossing folder you have to be careful and brayer the side that forms the embossed recessed surface.

The sentiment was stamped with Melon Mambo on Whisper White card stock and punched out using the Large Oval punch.  The 2nd layer is Melon Mambo card stock punched out using the Designer Label punch.  It was added to the card with stampin' dimensionals to make it pop out.

The sentiment is from Whimsical Words.  It one of the free stamp sets from the Sale-a-bration Mini Catalog.  For more information on how you can get this FREE stamp set, click here

I'll post the other card tomorrow – it uses the same technique but the colors I used for that card are Elegant Eggplant and Old Olive (one of my favorite color combinations!).
