New (to Me) Technique

Oops!! I accidentally scheduled two posts for today. Dang! :-) Please scroll down to see another new one.

I saw an Altenew video on this technique and then saw it someplace else, and I thought I should try it. It's pretty cool, and simple, too. You emboss with a folder, and then ink blend the color on the debossed side. After you are done adding the color, you use a black ink pad direct to paper and go over the top surface. I also added some Copic marker coloring to this first one (flower centers, beaks, feet) and some white dots with a gel pen to the second one. The folders are from Altenew and the sentiment is from Papertrey Ink.

Thanks so much for stopping by, and I hope you'll come back and visit again soon!
