Today I'm sharing another card I made using the Above the Clouds bundle, and this one uses the Emboss Resist technique.
Emboss Resist is a technique using heat embossing and sponging. I heat embossed the clouds with White embossing powder onto Whisper White cardstock, and then I sponged Balmy Blue ink over it, making those clouds really pop!
You can control the amount of ink used and how much you blend to really make a beautiful background.
Just like the last card I shared, it makes a great "sky-scape" for those hot air balloons!
I hope you enjoy this card! All the details are below:
