Our first lesson (Part 1) is Resist Technique with Embossing Powder. It was very interesting to combine the use of the embossing folder and heat (wet) embossing.
I really like the way this card turned out and just seemed to come together once I got the accent embossed piece figured out. In the lesson the instructor, Deena Ziegler used a flower/medallion embossing folder for the accent piece; this was something I didn't have as most of mine are background type embossing folders so I used the same Flourish embossing folder used on the black background on the cream cardstock. As in the lesson, the accent piece then got the resist treatment of sponging a dye ink which adhered to the space the embossing powder was not melted onto. This just screamed for Lime Green ink to me and I then added a lime green sheer ribbon and peridot gem to complete the card front which I did add the lime green layer of card stock to make it really pop.
The next part of the lesson is a resist technique with wax paper. I have this part almost completed but well it is getting late and tomorrow starts at 5 so I'm calling it a night and will post another card tomorrow.
Hope you all have a creative week and please check back and leave a comment if you like. Thanks for taking a peek!
