Tips, Tutorials, & Techniques - Framework Design





Heat embossing your stamped images creates a fun opportunity for playing with coloring techniques. The embossed lines provide texture as well as a barrier for color bleed. Choose watercolor or blended ink; loose, random color or precise application — there are so many ways to implement a variation on this technique. Our assortment of rubber background stamps allows you to create a full panel of pattern and color with a single impression…it doesn't get any easier than that!

  1. These cards are fabulous. . .the video offers such a great technique for working with geometrical designs and the other cards continue the embossing/water coloring backgrounds with patterns that reveal the versatility of this technique. Thanks for the cards and video!
