Here is a lovely card I made after seeing someone else use Crushed Curry and Clear Embossing powder on vellum.The card I saw was monochromatic but I thought I would add just a dash of the Dusty Durango. I am not a huge fan of the colour orange but I am making myself use it more.
To emboss in colour, what you have to do is use your stamp first in the clear versamark and then into the colour ink of your choice. This way you get the Versamark you need for embossing but also don't ruin your versamark pad with ink.
I used Clear Embossing powder but you could also use Iridescent Ice for extra sparkle or Glassy Glaze for a thicker shell.
I also embossed the flower on to vellum, flipped it over and coloured the center spots with the Dusty Durango marker. This was then cut out and popped out onto a dimensional. I like that is is a fairly clean and simple looking card. It actually makes me like orange just a little bit.
I also wanted to change up how I presented my sentiment. This is actually the words but not the design from one of the stamps in the Oval All stamp set. I stamped it in Dusty Durango onto the Crushed Curry, and cut it out with the FABULOUS Modern Label punch, it was nice but I wanted more. So I cut another piece from the punch in the Dusty Durango and offset it behind the Crushed Curry one and I like it soo much better. I think I might become a fan of orange jsut yet (don't get to excited!)
