After watching Jennifer McGuire’s New Embossing Folder Technique on YouTube today, I decided to give it a try. The technique is to use a silver pigment ink on the raised side of the embossing folder, run through your machine and then brayer ink of the same color as your cardstock on top. I didn’t have any silver pigment ink so I tried Archival Brillance Pearlescent Purple ink which gave me some shine and lightness on the debossed sections of the panel. The 3D embossing folder is SimonSaysStamp’s Floral Field, SSS Cosmo Flower Petals and Script Hello dies and Gina K Designs Wild Lilac ink completed my card.
My card today will be entered into the Color Challenge with:
As you can see from their mood board, I decided on purple.
Thanks for stopping in for a peek. I appreciate you and your time. Take care and be safe.

The silver worked perfectly. This technique looks like tons of fun
Lovely! The flowers are set off so nicely with the embossing.
What a fabulous take on JM’s video. It turned out beautifully!
Oooh that technique adds so much depth and dimension. What a beautiful embossing folder. Loving your bold Cosmo! Thanks so much for playing along with us at The Double D, Color challenge. Donna, DT Member.

What an amazing card! That technique is an awesome look. For me you can never go wrong with purple.
Fabulous in purple and I think it looks great. I like how the purple isn’t on every flower. Funnily enough I went looking for silver metallic pigment ink but our local craft store doesn’t have any. I have some gold which I may try. I shall have to look elsewhere or buy online at some point.
Pretty! This technique really brings out the embossed image, and you did a great job improvising with the ink you had on hand.
Thanks, Lisa.
