Saturday Challenge #20 - Use Embossing Powder
Welcome to the Three Room Studio Saturday Challenge!
I'm Pocono Pam and I'm your challenge host this week! This week's challenge is...
USE EMBOSSING POWDER
I love clean and simple (CAS) cards. Though I can appreciate cards with various layers, I do enjoy the simplicity of a plenty of white space. Well, on my card today, plenty of black space.
I used the Cubicle Zirconia clear stamp set to create my card. The turquoise card base is measured at 4" X 4". I then cut the black card panel at 3 7/8" X 3 7/8". I used a powder tool to prep the black panel. This removes static and oils from the cardstock.
I then stamped the chandelier with clear embossing ink onto the black panel. Next, I sprinkled silver embossing powder onto the image and heat embossed it. I love watching the embossing powder heat up! This was the first card technique I learned years ago and it is still magical to me.
I stamped the sentiment with black ink on white cardstock and matted it with turquoise cardstock.
I few sequins complete the card.
I hope you are inspired by my clean and simple card today and will join in the challenge. Thanks for taking a peek.
