3D Embossing Folder fun . . .

 Happy Monday Evening all!

Been a busy day between cleaning, going to the gym & lending a helping hand to hubby on his guest bathroom redo project!  But I spotted a technique that I just had to try and create a card to share before calling it a day!

I spotted this fun technique over a the Group of Seven Cardmakers blog

Group of Seven Badge

The technique is called 'Dry Embossed Highlights over Ink Blending'.
Be sure to pop over and check out all the details!  They even offer up a couple videos to help get you going.  I kind of did mine a 'little' different,  

 

 Truth be told, after sponging the panel I wanted to use for my embossing and highlighting, I accidentally embossed the 'wrong' side of my sponged panel so my embossing came out on the white side vs the purple side.  DUH!!!

So, instead of starting over (which I should have done but time was slipping away from me), I inked over my embossed image in purple then lightened it with the white but it didn't do what I wanted so I highlighted with the same color but a little 'heavier handed'.  Was still a beautiful panel so here we are!!  lol
