The 5 Ways Showcasing Blackout Technique with a Twist + Trimmed Embossing are:
- Blackout technique applying black ink directly to your embossing folder, also use a die cut panel to trim the edges
- Blackout technique using Ink brayer to apply ink to the flat (debossed) portion of the embossed panel, also use a die cut panel to trim the edges
- Start with colored cardstock and use ink cubes to add more color in stripes and use border dies to cut the top and bottom
- Use 3 ink cube colors to tap on color throughout the raised side of the folder and lightly mist the folder with water to allow the colors to blend together, then swipe overtop the embossed panel with a darker color ink cube, and use a die cut to create a window
- Tear the bottom of the card base for added interest and use 3 ink cubes for a gradient of color to swipe into for an interesting background
