Blackout Embossing Technique – Blog Hop

Welcome to the TOTALLY TECHNIQUES BLOG HOP! We are featuring the BLACKOUT EMBOSSING TECHNIQUE today! You’ll find a video tutorial where I share how to make a some fun cards here:

You’ll find this same technique using Stampin’ Blends HERE.

I decided to try this technique with FLUID 100 watercolor paper and a WATER PAINTER to be able to get bright, solid color into the dots on the DOTTED CIRCLES 3D EMBOSSING FOLDER. It worked GREAT! The Fluid 100 paper worked better than Basic White – the colors stayed brighter.
