Paper Rose Friendship Mouse | Partial Embossing

 I have a little bit of diffused embossing, I think that is what it is called.


Recipes

Paper Rose

 
Distress Ink
 Rustic Wilderness
 

I wanted to explain what I did with the embossing for those who may not know how to do this. 
I got 2 pieces of chipboard and glued them together, this is only because I thought it wasn't thick enough. I gauged this on trying to get it thick enough to replace one platform of my Big Shot machine.
 
After it was dried, I drew what I wanted to cut out. The image I had in mind was like he was sheltering under a tree. After cutting it out, I placed it with my piece of card stock where I wanted it and used the thick white plate and one of the clear plates. You will need to adjust this to your machine depending on your chipboard. This might mean adding shim or playing with the plates. Big Shots have flaps you can remove depending on if you are embossing or die cutting, so these can be helpful, if needed.

Paper Rose You Warm My Heart | Valentines | No line colouring

 I did these cards while away so no video for this card.

I wouldn't recommend doing no line colouring on such a fine stamp and I certainly had my doubts for a while there. My "brilliant" ideas usually cause me a few headaches and I wonder why I decided to do this stupid idea. :D My "brilliant" idea worked out cool in the end. Well, I love it! I hope you do too. 


Recipe
Texture Paste
WOW Clear Hologram Sparkle Embossing Powder

( Yes, I completely forgot about the orange until it was too late!)


I wanted to explain the background. I applied Texture Paste through the stencil and while it was wet I sprinkled the embossing powder over the wet paste and left it to dry. Now I have heated it from the back while the paste was still wet. I found most texture paste will bubble up more and give a cool texture. So it depends on what you are going for of course. If you would like a video on seeing the difference, let me know.
Applying the powder gives the paste a shiny cool look. If you try the technique please tag me on Instagram @natalieperrywalsh. I would love to see it.

Two things I would like to say about no line colouring.
  • Don't, unless you do no line often, do a line image first up... or after a couple of adult cordials :)
  • Don't use new inks and find out that it drys very light! And then try to colour it later in the evening. 

Clearly I wasn't thinking much but that is what you get with me. You get everything. I'm not perfect and totally get carried away.

The liquid Sparkle was applied over the whole heart.

That is it for me. Thanks for stopping by.
