Evening blog friends, welcome to my little corner of crafty happiness. I have finally discovered a technique that's quick! Joy and happy dance. In fact I had my central image so fast it was a bit of an OH! moment. Sometimes we need something quick and although I have kept this ultra simple I am quite pleased. She looks a bit ghostly but it does have a certain something about it..........
I have been wanting to try the emboss resist technique for a while and when I saw it on SSS the other day I thought now I'm going to give it a go. Originally I was going to use a few colours but once I started applying DI Salty Ocean over the embossed image I kinda got carried away. She looks a bit like an old negative. The stamps are PaperArtsy Winter Wonderland Plate 6 and the sentiment is from PA Bloom set. I used white Stampendous emboss powder and mounted on a blue linen embossed foil card from Craft Creations.

Really lovely resist technique! I love your choice of colors that you used and I think your card is very striking! Your image reminds me more of a negative than of a ghost. :) She's wonderful!

Thank you for visiting my blog. I used Modelling paste and a stencil from Prima, some green mist and a little bit paint on the edges on the green tag.
Hello Gail, I really like your card. The resist embossing is a fabulous effect especially with the image of the lovely lady. Love the blue and the simplicity of the design. It does look a bit like an old negative and I love that.
