Create a color pop on black cardstock using alcohol markers.

Step-by-Step

1. Step 1

   Cut a piece of black cardstock to the desired size of the project.

   

2. Step 2

   Stamp a solid image onto the cardstock using embossing ink.

   

3. Step 3

   Cover the image with white embossing powder and set with a heat gun.
