Naturally Gilded Embossed Resist Technique

Here is a gorgeous card.
I did a fun embossed resist technique I did using the 
#161639- Naturally Gilded 12x12" Specialty DSP= $ 10.00.
 
I used an embossing folder on the front of the card-
#161598- Basic 3D Embossing Folder (set of 3)= $30.00.
NOTE:  These are currently out of stock & will be available again around 5/1/23.
This is what it looks like opened up.
This is a center front door card.
This is what it looks like when standing up!
 
using this Naturally Gilded Specialty DSP, doing the embossed resist technique!
The DSP comes white & colored it black!
 
How did I do this?
NOTE:  This is messy, you might want to wear rubber gloves or use kleenex to hold down the DSP, so that you don't touch it & get ink all over!
 *I drug/rubbed my Memento ink pad directly across the foiled DSP. 
 *I then took a kleenex & wiped over the top of the whole piece of DSP.  
By doing this- it will remove the ink that is on the copper embossed part 
to make it shiny again!
Here are the supplies & measurements so you can make this card too!

stamp set: 'Lovely & Lasting' (words)
card stock:
  • Basic Black- 5 1/2 x 8 1/2"- score at 2 1/8" & 6 3/8" & fold for a center opening 
  • Basic Black- 2 1/2" strip- punch out with Label Me Lovely

  • Copper Foil- 3 x 4"
  • Copper Foil- 3/4 x 4"
  • Basic White- 4 x 5 1/4"- for inside of card
designer paper:  Naturally Gilded DSP- 2 3/4 x 3 3/4"
ink:  Memento; Versamark
other:  Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine; Basic 3D Embossing Folder (cross hatch design); Label Me Lovely Punch; Evening Evergreen 3/8" Open Weave Ribbon; Brushed Metallic Dots (Copper); Metallics Embossing Powders Pack (Cooper); Embossing Additions Tool Kit; Heat Tool; dimensionals; glue dots
