Embossed/Copic Tinted Elegant Image Tutorial

Hiya Everyone!! Remember yesterday I said that I was going to create an elegant card? Well, here's my elegant card. I had bought this really cute cube stamp that has 4 images on a square cube months ago and never used it. Well, last night I decided to ink it up. . .finally! LOL!

I thought embossing the image would be really nice so I embossed it and colored the image using my Copic Markers rather than just embossing it.

I created a short tutorial on how I did it. I mean it's simple but if you need instructions scroll down and check out the tutorial.

I didn't know what to title my tutorial so I just called it "Embossed/Copic Tinted Elegant Image".

I found this cute button in my scrap box and I thought it would go perfect with the embossed design.

Not much chit-chatting today. . .I need to pick up my daughter from school soon so I'll save my chit-chat for tomorrow.

Card Details:

Stamps: Stampendous Tiled Quad Cube, Heidi Grace, Fiskar clear stamps

Paper: SU Chocolate Chip, Creamy Caramel

Ink: Copic markers, Versamark

Accessories: Gold embossing powder, Joanns scrap essential, organdy ribbon, button (?)

Embossed/Copic Tinted Elegant Image Tutorial

Materials

1 Very Light Shade Copic Markers (E02)

1 Medium Shade Copic Marker (RV42)

Neutral Card Stock (Creamy Caramel)

Versamark Ink or Embossing ink
Gold Embossing Powder (or any color desired)

Heating Tool

Elegant/Swirl Rubber Stamp

Stamp the image on to a neutral card stock using Versamark or Embossing ink

Apply embossing powder to the image and heat emboss the image. Metallic colored embossing powder works really nicely with elegant or swirl images

Using the lighter shade Copic Marker (E02), color the whole image


With the medium shade Copic Marker (RV42), shade parts of the image.

When you're done, parts of the image are shaded as shown in the picture

Run the edge of your card stock on to the Versamark ink (similar to swiping your credit card through a machine), apply the embossing powder, and heat it with a heating tool. This will give a subtle embossed frame around the image

This completes this tutorial. Design your card as desired.
