Stamping Sunday Blog Hop Embossing Paste
–
–
My first creation is a card.
I started with a Basic Black cardstock base.
Then, I added a diagonally cut Lemon Lime Twist mat.
You’ll notice that it extends completely across the top but
only about three quarters of the way down the side.
Over this is the Whisper White focal layer.

For the focal layer, I started by flicking on Melon Mambo ink refill with an Aqua Painter.
Then, I used on of the Pattern Party Decorative Masks and added a bit of
Embossing Paste in a random shape.
I then sprinkled on some embossing powder that I had previously tried to tint with
Melon Mambo ink refill.
While the embossing powder tinted, it no longer embossed. But, it was perfect for using here
as it did not add any more moisture to the Embossing Paste.
Next, I stamped images from Paisleys and Posies in Melon Mambo and Memento Black.
Then, I cut out these images and a few additional shapes using the Paisley Framelits.
A little layering of die cut pieces and this card was done.

Mixed Media Décor with Embossing Paste
–
–
For my second creation, I created a little mixed media piece.
I started with a art canvas cube.
First, I tinted my acrylic paint with some Melon Mambo ink refill
and painted the front of the canvas.
To add some more interest, I tinted the paint a little further and dry brushed on some accents.
Then, I painted the sides of the cube with black acrylic paint.
–
–
Next, I used one of the Pattern Party Decorative Masks and
laid down some Embossing Paste in a rough texture.
Once the Embossing Paste had dried, I painted on some Versamark Refill.
After sliding the mask back on, I sprinkled on Gold Embossing Powder.
Remove the mask before heat setting the embossing powder!
Tips: Rinse the mask and palette knife immediately or set them in a tray of warm water.
This will keep the Embossing Paste from hardening on your tools.

I’d love to be your demonstrator if you’re in the United States!
Two very gorgeous projects Sara! I love the mixed media effect with the embossing paste! TFS
Thanks Anja! Me too. Such an easy way to add a little mixed media feel.
These are great, Sara! I tried gold and silver embossing on top of the paste and had a total failure. Yours turned out so much better! I love your paisleys card, too! Thanks for inviting me to participate in the hop!
Thanks for joining us Sarah! You’ll have to try the embossing on the Embossing Paste again and try my technique of painting on the Versamark.
Love the fun ways you used the embossing paste, and that you turned a previous experiment into a win with this experiment 😉
Thanks Tanya! I hate to throw out even my “failed” experiments — they might just be waiting for the right ingredient!
Thanks Tanya! I hate to throw out even my “failed” experiments — because who knows when it comes to creativity?

Mixed media is back baby! And I couldn’t be happier! Love your projects Sara
Thank you Global Design Project Team! I hope we’ll be seeing lots of mixed media (or more of it).
Both of these projects are just wonderful!!! I love the idea of the mixed media piece. So pretty
Thank you Jennifer! That little mixed media piece is so easy — you’ll have to give it a try.
Wait! You tinted embossing powder?? What a cool idea! I love both projects – they both have a mixed media feel which is right up my alley!
Yes, well I tried to Lynsay. Glad you enjoyed the projects. I think there will be many mixed media-like projects to come.
