I learned a new direct-to-paper technique the other day where you dry emboss some cardstock and then drag an ink pad across the debossed side. It creates a gorgeous look! The video I saw had first blended some different colors of ink onto white cardstock using Blending Brushes before dry embossing and adding ink, but I thought it would work with any light colored cardstock as well. So, here's my take on this technique using the Nature's Prints Bundle, a sneak peek embossing folder, and some retiring accessories. I'm sending this card to a customer as a thank you card.
