Emerging Flowers

There was a new Gina K. Designs release last week and there is a release challenge on StampTV called Emerging Images. We are to use the Emboss Resist technique to make our images emerge from the cardstock. You can have a look at the new products Here. I am also entering this in the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge - Anything Goes.

I started with a piece of white cardstock and stamped the sentiment in the middle. Then I stamped the flowers and leaves with VersaMark and embossed them in white. Using a sponge dauber, I inked over the images to show the lines of the stamps and then used a paper towel to wipe off any ink that collected on the embossed areas.

I matted the front panel and attached this to a white card base.

The emboss resist technique is one of my favourites and there are several variations that I have tried.

I used the following supplies:
Gina K. Designs: Rose Peonies stamp set
                            Ink: Tangerine Twist, Sweet Mango, Fresh Asparagus, Dark Chocolate 
                            White, Sweet Mango cardstock
VersaMark ink
white embossing powder, tape runner, sponge dauber from my stash
