www.crafty-rootes.com – The Spring Corners dies and stamp set used with Embossing paste and re-inkers to make a pretty thank you card – Technique Tuesday Blog Hop

I scooped a little Embossing Paste onto my Silicon Mat using one of my Palette Knives. I added a small drop of Melon Mambo re-inker to the paste and mixed it thoroughly with the palette knife. I carefully smeared the coloured embossing paste onto the flower petals taking care to avoid the flower centres. I set the piece aside to allow the Embossing Paste to dry.

When the pink paste had dried, I added another scoop of paste to the Silicon Mat and mixed in a little Lemon lolly re-inker. This was then carefully smeared over the flower centres before setting it aside to dry.

Once the flowers were completely dry – about 30mins later I peeled up the top layer. I flipped the panel around and re-positioned the clean negative die cut flower over the embossed flowers. I mixed a little Granny Apple Green re-inker to a little Embossing Paste and smeared it over the leaves and set this aside to dry before removing the top panel.
