Black Patent Leather Silhouette Flowers

Made this card for Daria's I Remember Mary Jane challenge. I have to admit, when I first watched Judi Watanabe's Elegant Embossing video for the patent leather technique I was pretty skeptical that I would get decent results. Boy was I surprised!

 

Stamped Hero Arts H5011 Silhouette Corner using Tsukineko VersaMagic Dew Drops in Persimmon (orange), Oasis Green, and Sea Breeze (blue) onto white paper. Heat embossed with clear embossing powder.

 

Then covered the entire piece of paper with a ColorBox/ClearSnap black pigment ink pad and heat embossed again with clear. The colored inks magically appeared, just like they did in Judi's video!

 

Cut, dry embossed, and made a white matte using Spellbinders Nestabilities. Adhered to Bazzill Bluegrass paper using foam squares for dimension. Black gingham ribbon from Basic Grey.

 

Thanks for looking! :-)
