Beth's Paper Cuts: Emboss Resist with the Pretty Pumpkins Bundle

Today I am using the Pretty Pumpkins bundle. My thought was to do a Cinderella inspired card with the Be Dazzling paper from the Sale-a-Bration catalog. I set to work and loved the end result, only to find out that the Be Dazzling paper has sold out! We are nearing the end of Sale-a-Bration, just one week left, so the items will be selling out. The card was so fun to make so I decided to look for alternatives.

My first choice was to use Silver Foil instead and I really like how it turned out. The card base is Balmy Blue, similar to Cinderella's ball gown in the classic story. I used Balmy Blue and Blending Brushes to add color to the background. I also stamped and embossed the center pumpkin and vine on a separate piece of Basic White and used the Blending Brushes to add color on top of the embossed images (Emboss Resist technique).

I was having fun with the Emboss Resist technique so I decided to try another version. This time I used Rainbow Glimmer Paper. The colors used here are Magenta Madness and Mango Melody.

I love the sentiment in this set: If Friends were pumpkins, I'd pick you.

Take a look at the how to video here for tips on using the specialty papers and the Blending Brushes.
