I really enjoyed using the surgical spirit with blendabilities technique that I learned last month. I have a stack of dry embossed card stock that I created whilst at the crop using the embossing folders that my sister brought with her some of which are already coloured with this method in various colours. They are on my “things to use one of these days” pile. I found that squirting the surgical spirit / rubbing alcohol from a height created more of a ink blot kind of effect which I like. This is using the Stampin’ Up! Ampersand TIEF (textured impressions embossing folder) and using the 3 cherry cobbler blendability markers on the cellophane envelope, but yet again, they don’t look red and in fact, look totally wrong on a cherry cobbler card base – so this is put on a rose red base.

I’m definitely going to have to add this embossing folder to my next order.
