Hi everyone! It’s Cathy Z. back with another installment of EZ with CZ! Today I’m sharing one of my favorite ways to NOT color in a detailed image! I love to stamp a big, detailed image, add some embossing powder, and voila: create an emboss resist background. This is such a quick way to blend on beautiful color while still preserving all the details of any large stamp.

The School Supplies cling stamp is a really fun background image, but I didn’t want to figure out all the different marker colors so instead, a nice rainbow blend over the top of the embossing powder was the easiest way to create a panel for my card. The melted embossing powder resists the ink, leaving behind a fresh, crisp white image.

I added my CZ Design Just a Note die for a finishing touch with a layer of Simon Says Stamp Matte Gold Cardstock stacked on top of a few layers of the die in white cardstock.
Here is my tutorial showing how easy this card is to create:
