       Dirty Embossing Folders

       Hey there! Time to break out your embossing folders and get them
       dirty.
       This month's Ink challenge is to use ink or paint or any wet
       colorant to bring out the details in an embossed image.
       I am "borrowing" a couple of technique images from the web to
       help you along if you have never done this before.
       Here are mine. I chose to do cards, but you can do any paper
       crafting project for this challenge.

       for my embossed image I dirtied up the folder by just rubbing my
       ink pad on top of the side I wanted to highlight.
       Then I inserted the paper and ran it through my Big Shot, much
       like this artist did here:

       you don't have to use the embossing powder as she does, but it
       does look great if you do.
       Otherwise, if you own a brayer, you can ink your folder up like
       this gal does:

       now if you don't have a brayer or embossing folders you can
       participate this way.
       Stamp an image.
       Heat emboss some powder on it.
       Then simple use a sponge and some ink to color around it, like
       this gal has done.

       See where we are going here?
       I want to see some highlighted raised images.
       Can't wait to see what you do.
