Hello, crafty friends. Today I am sharing a birthday card using the Tonic Studios Shoot For The Moon Stamp Set. Unfortunately, this stamp set is out of stock, however, you can achieve the same look by using similar images from other wonderful stamp companies.
To achieve the following look, please follow the steps below:
1. Use an anti-stack powder tool to remove any static from the card stock. This will also prevent the embossing powder from sticking to the areas that are not being embossed.
2. Stamp your image with any clear sticky ink and add your black embossing powder.
3. Preheat your heat gun until it is nice and hot. This will allow the powder to emboss quicker and prevent your card stock from warping.
4. Once your heat tool is hot, it is ready to emboss the powder. *
If you do not have black embossing powder, you can still achieve the same look by stamping with black pigment ink and use clear embossing powder instead. Dye Ink will not work and will dry almost instantly while Pigment Ink will stay wet longer.*
5. Using your Distress Ink, begin blending your background. After inking your background and it is dry, use a dry cloth and remove the ink from the embossed image. This technique is also known as the emboss resist technique. *Add a masking sheet on all areas you do not wish to ink*
6. After the background is dry, stamp your background image.
7. Assemble your card and add any embellishments for added sparkle.
