Hello everyone! Spellbinder's Day 11 in their Advent Calendar is a fabulous 3D embossing folder! It is tall and narrow; tall enough for an A2 sized card. To fit the width, I embossed it three times and a bit! I had a lot of fun with this ink blended card and was happy with the result!

A panel of white card stock measuring 4“ x 5 1/4“ was embossed fully 3 times. It didn’t quite emboss the entire width and so I ran it through a fourth time just to catch the edge. Check out the video to see how easy it is to align the design for repeat embossing.
The panel was inked with Distress Oxide Inks in rainbow colours. I worked with Picked Raspberry, Carved Pumpkin, Squeezed Lemonade, Mowed Lawn, Tumbled Glass and Villainous Potion.
The design was masked off vertically using Post-It Note Tape. The Post-It Note Tape will not stick to the wet ink and so I made sure that the length extended beyond the panel on both ends so it would adhere to the work surface
Working one column at a time, the five in colours were applied with blending brushes. I did not apply heavy pressure, but rather just inked it lightly back-and-forth until I got the tone that I wanted.
To create this fun, multi tone design, the panel was masked horizontally, and the ink applied in the same rainbow order. Again, the pressure was kept light.
The panel was adhered to a black, A2 sized card base.
The sentiment from Woodland Tales Sentiments was cut from both silver glitter paper and black sheet foam. The sentiment was stacked and adhered to the card front.
The card was embellished with silver confetti and finished off with Nuvo Crystal Drops Morning Dew.
