We did some embossing on acetate to make the butterfly and some triple embossing on the chipboard flower. I had to leave this one early so I finished the background papers last night at home - used slightly different colours as I only own 2 distress inks. I scrunched the paper wiped the ink, sprayed with water and ironed. Repeated until covered. The other paper was just coloured with foam and stamped. Again I used slightly different stamps to finish it off. I'm really pleased with the effect.

Great work Karen. I love the embossed flower and the butterfly is beautiful. Was it hard to do? I would've thought the acetate would have went funny with the heat gun. Lovely! Jaqui x
ReplyDeleteIt wasn't hard at all - just time consuming - the session ran over quite a bit which is why I had to leave it and finish at home. I think it's heat resistant acetate- you can still make it warp if you are too harsh with the heat gun but if you are careful you can emboss. He gave us a tip to warm up the heat gun first so the air is hot and melts the powder quickly and then it won't have time to warp the acetate
