Hi and welcome to my blog. I love trying out new techniques and discovered this one recently.
First I sponged on 2 colors of Oxide inks and then flicked water across the background with a water brush. Next I took a 3D embossing folder and inked up the raised areas with Versa Mark ink. I placed the inked card stock face down onto the raised part of the embossing folder and ran it through my machine. I then added gold embossing powder where it stuck to the inked area and heat set the powder. This gave a pretty gilded look! The butterfly was stamped on some shimmery inked card stock and fussy cut.
I am entering this card into the Simon Says
Emboss It challenge and Pammies Inky Pinkies Challenge #2206 -
Anything Goes.
Stamp: Butterfly Kisses - BoBunny
Embossing Folder: Sizzix
Oxide Inks: Mustard Seed and Kitsch Pink
Thanks so much for stopping by. Have a great week!

Very pretty. The colour combination of yellow and pretty pink is so refreshing at this dull time of year. Nice embossing.
Oh my that is beautiful, such a neat technique and it is so pretty against your inked background!
Your card is beautiful, and I'm so happy you provided instructions for the gilded technique....I'd love to try it! I like the colors you chose and the embossed image as well. It's a pretty, pretty card, and I'm so happy you chose to share it with us at PIP Challenges!! Thank you!
