Creating Matching Papers and Embellishments



If you cant find any papers or embellishments, you like or to match your product why not create your own?


What you will need:
-White card
-Stamp of your choice [Flower, by Martha Stewart]
-Clear ink pad [Martha Stewart Create]
-Embossing powder [Gold, Martha Stewart]
-Heat gun
-Ink blending tool and Foam
-Distress Ink [Tim holts, Chipped Sapphire]


Paper:
STEP 1: Ink up your stamp and print it onto your card.
STEP 2: Cover over the stamped area with your chosen embossing powder.
STEP 3: Tap off the excess powder, poor back into the pot/jar.
STEP 4: Heat over the stamped, embossed area and it will start to heat up and change colour.
STEP 5: Repeat the first 4 steps until your card is covered.
STEP 6: Once you have covered the paper, dab your Ink blending tool into your chosen distress ink and rub it over the surface of your stamped embossed images. If the ink sticks to your embossed images, which it shouldnt, just wipe over with a dry cloth. If you would like the colour darkened just keep going over until you get the shade you would like.
Your backing paper should be complete.
