Botanical Card with Inked Embossing Folder

August 11, 2022 by Heather Holbrook

Grungy Botanical Card with Inked Embossing Folder

Erum has a fun technique to add lots of ink and a bit of shine to a dry embossed card. Using an embossing folder from Altenew she added several colors of inks directly to the raised portions of the folder then inked the background in a dark brown which give this design a cool feel of embossed leather. A few sprinkled of gold heat embossing also add a bit of shine.

Visit the Altenew blog for a video how to.
