Faux Wood Carving Technique

Happy Friday! 

Check out these cards! 

Which do you like better?

THIS- the left- embossed side?

OR

THAT- the right- debossed side? 

 

I did the Faux Wood Carving Technique using the

#165597- (Glass &) Gardens Embossing Folder(s)= $9.00 set of 2.

 

Aren't they neat! 

This is the EMBOSSED side with the flowers/leaves sticking upward.

This is the DEBOSSED side with the flowers/leaves going downward. 

 

How did I do it? 

*EMBOSSED the Very Vanilla card stock.

*Then with the embossed side upward, I scored every 1/2" to make the lines onto the cardstock, 

using my Simply Scored Scoring Tool

*Then "very lightly" drag ink pads over the embossed flowers/leaves.

*Use Crumb Cake, then Pecan Pie & then Early Espresso ink pads.

*Add Gems
