Umm… Bossing… Challenge!

September 7, 2012 CAS- usual Friday Challenge, PTI, Uncategorized

Welcome again for another week @ CAS-ual Fridays
This week is Guest Designer Challenge week too.
The theme this week is EMBOSSING

You can use either Dry or Wet embossing or both on your projects.

This week’ sponsor is Simon Says Stamp Store.

Simon Says Stamp

The winner receives $25 gift certificate.

Here is my take on the challenge.

I decided to make Christmas cards early. So I can decide on 5 designs to mass produce them. 

This card has two techniques involved – Masking and Heat Embossing. I have used washi tapes to randomly mask the white cardstock leaving some white cardstock exposed. Then rubbed versamark over them making sure to cover the exposed white cardstock. Covered the area with coloured embossing powder. I have used red colour. Heat emboss the powder. Then remove the tapes and you get these beautiful graphic embossed stripes. I also tried using green embossing powder and cut a couple out and layered on the red. This give the Christmas feel to the card. Imagine the possibilities!!! So many colours combos for so many occassions.
I love how my card turned out. Hope you do too!

I cannot wait to see what you come up with!
You can either dse dry embossing or heat embossing or both on your projects.

Ta!
