Today's Technique Challenge was a nice one to try. I had never done it before. Thanks to LindaB for a great tutorial and a gorgeous sample.
Several things I learned about myself and the de-boss technique:
1. Initially, there was a lot of smearing on the vellum. I had to stamp off before this would stop.
2. It takes VERY LITTLE pressure for this technique to work. It is VERY EASY to press through the vellum.
3. Darker marker hues work best.
4. The ink color lightens when de-bossed. I went over it at certain places.
