The 5 Ways Showcasing Diagonal Embossed Strips + White Pigment Ink Magic are:
- Cut up different colored strips of colored cardstock and piece back together, ink textured side of folder with white pigment ink
- Emboss panel and cut up at a pivot point to the right, and use a tacky mat to ink blend on each piece; use a second white embossed panel to line up – gently use the white pigment pad to wipe over the entire finished panel for pretty highlights
- Use back (debossed side) of card panel, cut, color blend, use a background stamp and white pigment ink to add a very subtle and beautiful bit of interest to the background
- Start with a colored cardstock panel and pick a text background embossing folder. Use a white pigment ink pad to gently swipe on color to the top of the text to make it pop. Diagonally cut the panel and add a vellum and colored cardstock piece for added interest.
- Pick 3 colors that blend well together and blend a card panel. Create your own background by using a mixture of stamps in slightly darker colors as well as the white pigment ink for a pop of ghosting. Trim off a diagonal corner to leave an open space for a sentiment. Emboss over this background.
