Embossed Card with Spot Blending

March 2, 2021 by Heather Holbrook

https://heroarts.com/blogs/hero-arts-blog/spot-blending-technique-with-the-puzzle-fancy-die

By now I’m sure most stampers are familiar with the popular technique of ink blending, adding color to cardstock with a blending tool and ink pad so it’s fun to see someone put a bit of a spin on it. Daniel ink blended over his heat embossed background stamp with a spot blending technique to give certain areas of the stamp different colors like the leaves and flowers, I love the finished look!

Learn more about this technique over on the Hero Arts blog.
