So to make this card I rubbed my Embossing Buddy on White Shimmery Paper and  then I stamped  3 flowers  with Versmark clear ink  avoiding overlapping the images, then I applied White Stampin’ Emboss Powder  and I heat it up.

 I   applied the inks of this colour challege with Stampin’ write markers and blender pen  and  I wasn’t  concern  about the coloring being perfect or achieving a perfect ink blending. I kind of liked howit turns out  with its  improvised  colour imperfection..

Can you notice the difference in the colouring? for the  Flirty Flamingo flowers  I used blender pens  and for the  Dadofil Delight flower I used  Stampin Write Markers.  

I cut a banner out of  black cardstock  and  I stamped and embossed the sentiment with Versmark clear ink and White Stampin’ Emboss Powder and heat it up. 

To finish I add embellishments such as black thread, delicate white  doilies and Rhinestones and I also add some dots of silver ink near the flowers using a silver metallic marker.

TIPS: 

• Rub the Embossing Buddy on the paper before stamping with Clear Versamak  Ink and embossing powders. 
• Allow your heat gun to warm up before using it on the embossing powders, this will help you to keep the paper flat and get a sharp embossed image.
• For intense colours use Stampin’ Write Markers + White Shimmery paper.
• To get a watercolour  look use blender pens + ink pads  on watercolour paper or White Shimmery paper( Avoid rubbing blender pens tip in circular motion on the paper . the excesses of water will pill the paper off)
