You're in for a treat today. I have a stunning Rooted in Nature Embossed Resist technique card for you today. If you need a special card for a special friend, this is the card to make. See below for detailed instructions.
Emboss Resist Technique is an oldie but goodie stamping technique. Here's how…
- Wipe Embossing Buddy all over a panel of Whisper White cardstock.
- Stamp images onto cardstock with Versamark ink.
- Cover with your choice of Stampin' Emboss Powder, remove excess powder.
- Use Heat Tool to melt powder, let cool.
- Sponge ink over the entire panel. (either Stampin' Sponge or Sponge Dauber will work)
- Use a paper towel to remove any ink from the embossed images.
- The areas where there is embossing – it will resist the ink and the images will "pop"!
The "skeleton leaves" from the Rooted in Nature stamp set are a perfect choice for the Emboss Resist Technique.
How'd She DO That? tips for Embossed Resist Rooted In Nature card:

HI Dawn! Beautiful card! I have a bit of a stupid question though; what would the difference be between using this technique and if you simply stamp the leaf in VM on Blackberry Bliss CS and embossed it it? W/o having to do any sponging? Thinking it might come out about the same?
That’s a good question Stephanie. When sponging the color on, you can choose to make it a dark or lighter shade of the ink. This card leans towards the darker shade. In fact – if another “layer” of sponging was added, it would probably be a close match to the cardstock. Also – in person, there is almost a mild texture look to it (it’s hard to describe). You can kind of see it in the close up picture. So it would be a matter of what look you’re going for. Hope that helps.
WOW! If this card is even prettier in person, it is really stunning!
Thanks Dianne!
