Tapestry Technique


I saw this Tapestry technique on SCS for the Monday challenge. It is so cool! You use several coordinating inks and sponge them onto white cardstock. Then you stamp with white ink and stamp off once before stamping on your card. Then use versamark over the whole card front and put clear embossing powder on it and heat. Then decorate your card. The colors for me seemed to come out darker once heated. I love the Garden Silhouettes set and like how it looks here. I used moss, bordering blue and not quite navy. For the center flower I used white ink and embossed with white ep. Thanks for looking.
