Thank you!

Welcome to October's Challenge.  This is a Mixed Media challenge.  

Blackout Embossing involves dry embossing, colouring, and swiping (direct to paper inking).  This is an easy combination of techniques which creates beautiful cards that are bold and dramatic.

Below are two videos that each use a different order of combining the above, as well as different colour mediums.  3D embossing folders are recommended to get the best results, but regular embossing folders can be used.

 

We hope you will give one of these a try, or use your own way of creating Blackout Embossing.  Come join us!

Winner for September's Sunflower Challenge

Bonnie Klass

The gold embossing makes Bonnie's clean and simple card shine (pun intended). The wide embossed border makes it clean and the little lady bug makes it fun.   

Congratulations, Bonnie!

Make sure to grab the Winner's badge below.

Top Pick

Maria Tchotcheva

I was amazed at the four beautiful hand painted cards that Maria made.  She is definitely a talented watercolorist and card maker. 

Congratulations, Maria!
