For today's Try a New Technique challenge - Sabrina is asking us to try Debossed Embossing.
Love how this came out! I inked the blue and pink Distress inks over a panel of Mixed Media card. Then I placed the panels inked side to the facing the side of the embossing folder that would Deboss (push the image into the card)
So - then I took the debossed image out of the folder - and rubbed lightly over the panel with a black ink pad - so the raised part would take the ink. a bit of ink ran onto the pink - but that's ok I covered some of it with the sentiment strip.
A great challenge Sabrina that is really easy to do - and looks like it took lots of work!
The first time I embossed the panel - I chose the wrong side of the folder (duh) You'll find that card next to this one in my gallery - I entered it into today's CAS challenge - make a thank you card.

This is gorgeous. That ef is a beauty and I love how you used such light and subtle tones on the flowers. And, thanks for making me chuckle...but you got two gorgeous cards out of it and two challenges so WTG! Beautiful card.

That is a gorgeous EF. You can tell the newer styles vs the older Cuttlebug-like ones. I need to go shopping! Love the subtle colour and how intense your black turned out. Oddly enough the EF I used had the printing on the 'wrong' side so if I had turned my CS in it in order to deboss I would have embossed instead. I had an old note on it telling me it was reversed. :-)

Great card and EF. I like the softness of your colours against the black.
