Emboss Resist with Blending – Monthly Mail Art with Kristina Werner, October 2018

Hello, all! Kristina here with another Monthly Mail Art! For this envelope, I did some heat embossing and ink blending. :)

I started out by stamping the large floral image from the Sketched Flowers stamp set along the left and bottom edges of a white envelope in VersaMark ink. I applied white embossing powder to the stamped flowers and then heat set it.

To add color to the envelope, I used sponge daubers and five colors of Distress Ink: Fired Brick, Seedless Preserves, Fossilized Amber, Spiced Marmalade, and Bundled Sage. The heat embossed lines resisted the ink and I was left with a pristine white lined image.

To finished off the envelope, I used one of the colors in the Finetec 6-color set for the address.

NOTE: Address used with permission. Thanks, Shirley!

Thanks for stopping by today! :)

  1. Beautiful envelope art! That’s such a pretty stamp set, and I love the ink blending over it. I wish I could do lettering like you do; so amazing!

  2. I love all the postage stamps you use. I’m guessing you have been collecting for a bit. Where would one begin this collection?
