Something Saturday - Blackout Embossing

 Hi there Creators

Today I'm showing you a technique I learnt just recently - Janine Rawlins had put it up on her FB, and as soon as I saw it I had to go and have a go!  OH MY GOODNESS!! If you haven't come across it before and you have a plentiful supply of embossing folders, I suspect you will be like me too.🤣

So here are the creations I made then I'll give you a brief rundown on how to do it: (I may have got a little carried away......)

First up: Fern 3D embossing folder and one of the embossing folders from Stripes & Splatters 3D embossing folders.

Then the other embossing folder from Stripes & Splatters is the Pretty Peacock one, and the purple one is one of the Basics 3D embossing Folders

Then lastly the 2 embossing folders from Fun Patterns embossing folders (these aren't 3D folders, but they still work 😍)

Don't they look great?

So, here is the way to do it.....  For these ones I started off with a piece of white cardstock, embossed it, then using brushes, brushed random colours (light & bright) all over the DEBOSSED side, lastly swipe over the whole thing with a darker colour, and the debossed bits should remain the light bright colours, with the flat raised sections in the dark colour.

I hope this excites you as much as it did me, and you are inspired to create

God Bless,
