I've teamed it up with the Inspiring Imperfections bundle, and the Misty Moonlight two-tone cardstock .  Next up using the Inspiring Imperfections bundle again, and the funny  Long Time No See Stamp set , I couldn't resist creating a Genie in a bottle 🤣  teamed up with the words from Birthday Celebration Stamp set , and the Sweet Jar Builder Punch to create the lid Card 3 uses the hilarious Not 29 Anymore Stamp set , I knew I had to have this one as soon as I saw it! Also uses...

Mixing it up with Embossing Powders

 Hi there Creators, 

Well this Something Saturday I've mixed up my embossing powders - literally!

I thought it would be interesting as they come in packs of 3 now to see what black and white would look like mixed up and embossed etc.

Therefore here are my findings.....

first up the embossing powders straight up - 

Top Row: Gold, Silver, Copper, 

Bottom Row:  Black, Clear & White (yes the clear isn't obvious, but bear with me!)

Henna Hearts, Heat Embossing, Stampin' Up!

So then I took a bit of 2 different colours from the sets of 3 and mixed them up in separate containers, and these were the results: I've put the 2 original colours either side of the mixed colour

Gold and Silver mix

Black & White Mix

Now I asked you to bear with me on the clear, and here is what I did with it (actually I did 2 things....)

Firstly I took the clear embossed on white cardstock, and added colour to the background using Blending Brushes;  where the embossing is stays white  (so pretty)

Then as I was doing this I thought how cool it would look with a different colour under the embossing, so I've used Pool Party cardstock, clear embossed onto it then added colour over the top (love it!) by the way how pretty is this heart from Henna Hearts stamp set?

I made them both up into cards using the lovely "Sending Hugs" saying from the new Eden's Garden Stamp set
