Upsy Daisy Faux Dry Embossing

Stamp Sets Upsy Daisy

Ink: Red Riding Hood Red, whisper white

Paper: Pink Pirouette, riding hood red, whisper white, bella rose dsp

Accessories: slit punch, sponge daubers

Technique: Joy fold and Faux Dry Emboss

Stamped Riding Hood Red onto whisper white. I accidentally forgot to clean stamp before stamping on whisper white (ouch), which gave a subtle pinkish colour. Stamped over top of red riding hood. I then (without reinking) stamped upsy daisy on front of joy fold, huffing to create moisture. I also stamped on the inner flap on whisper white (without reinking) with the upsy daisy stamp. Used slit punch on left hand side bottom to hold card closed.
