Hi I've been playing again with embossing powders this time and Smooch inks, lovely rich inks, yummy stuff, this is what I made.The recipe at LIM is pick a square It's a great challenge, pop over and have a peek, join in it's fun!
I chose the middle, again but only because my embossed piece was too big for the corners and didn't look balanced!
Stamped into the hot powder with
Stampendous Cling Peony Square
Painted with Smooch ink, Sassy pink and Luscious lime, yum yum:0) I got mine on my trip to the Craft Barn.
I liked the way the ink let the colour underneath show through and the leaves became translucent. Also I liked the way the melted powder oozed out off the square card when I pushed the stamp in.
More beauty sleep's needed and so many people are trying it now, I think it's a craze that'll catch on! If anyone has any success, please get in touch. I have yet to master the technique but as you know I won't let that stop me! TTFN peeps, have fun:0) xxx

Well - and you wowed at my card ! this is stunning...amazing, I just love that oozy, glorious, smoochy square. I too love thick embossing tho haven't done any for a while - you may just have re-kindled something...why is it always bedtime when I want to keep crafting!! (you were right about my LIM card and inking the mask BTW - had another go and it looked much better! Esther xx
great effect from the deep embossing technique and I love the colours you chose :-)
I absolutely love this card - lime green is one of my favourite colours and it works so well with the embossed image. Just wonderful!!
Like. Like. Like.
This is so bright and cheerful. I've never tried this technique before and in fact, have never bought any of the products you've used. Maybe one day....

The embossed square is so yummy! The colours are magnificent. I might even invest in some thick embossing powder. Over at Crafty Cardmakers Spotlight you can enter a new technique you have tried - this would be ideal. Congratulations on getting your 100 followers, and yes I did lose my family for a few days, but they are back now - so all smiles! Lynn x
Woo Hoo - great card and a fab technique too

Who says white space has to be white :-) This is a great card. I had to read it twice to figure out what you'd done...and now I might have to give this a go. Looks liek you're on your way to mastering it though!
