This is Sharon's challenge for VSN. I loved every minute of it however I did have to start over three times.
I was going to heat emboss in clear before I did the re-inker blowing but the heat gun blew all the embossing powder off the card stock, guess it doesn't work on gloss paper, then I did a background and felt it was too dark.
Third time lucky hope you like it thanks for looking and thanks Sharon for a great challenge
Cheers

I think this turned out beautiful! I really like the white against your background. It is stunning. I am so glad you enjoyed the technique. Thanks for playing my VSN challenge.

Third time gorgeous - it looks so rich and almost velvety in texture. This turned out beautifully, Marg.
You should be able to emboss on true gloss card (not on photo paper, it melts!!). But I've found I need to press harder with my stamp to make a good impression.
