Country Fig Madness

Add ink to an embossing folder and get a surprising result. I applied ink to the smooth or flat inside flap of the embossing folder. I used my ink pad itself and dabbed the ink. You can also use a brayer.

This was my first attempt, and I found that the color was too dark. So, I tried a lighter tone.

I do like the second card better, but the Magenta Madness is a loud color. I think I will have to try embossing and sponging some subtle colors on the roses. What do you think?

This embossing folder has been discontinued by Stampin' Up! Still, the technique can be used with any embossing folder. Whenever you want the embossing to pop with a bit of color on your background, give this technique a try.
