On this card, I clear heat embossed the Early Espresso die cut words and clear heat embossed over one of the cookies. I added gold metallic embossing powder to the “cookies” sentiment and fussy cut the image out.

On this card, I used the emboss resist technique. I first covered the Sprial Dye large background stamp with Versamark ink and stamped it.

Then I white heat embossed the image. Next, I ink blended a rainbow pattern over the embossing. Last I used a paper towel with a touch of water to wipe away the ink that sat on top of the embossed image.
