Happy Birthday Mommy! This card is for my mom who celebrated her birthday yesterday :)
I have been watching a lot of Fran's video on YouTube on how to paint with embossing powder. But most of the time she did it with a scene. I thought I'd give it a try using Stampendous Cling Jumbo stamps. Boy are they HUGE! I've seen lots of great projects using these, but I didn't have any in my collection. So I had to get at least one didn't I? (I got 2).
Supplies: Stampendous Jumbo Cling, Hero Arts Envelope pattern stamp, White embossing powder, Brown embossing powder, Glitter embossing powder, Tsukineko brush stix, Versamark ink, Memento Tuxedo black ink, MME Confetti Cardstock, Kraft cardstock, Bazzill Cardstock
First I stamped the flower on a piece of yellow cardstock, and then ink the surface with Versamark. Then I covered the area with white embossing powder and heat it. When the card has cooled down, using the Tsukineko brush sticks, I highlighted certain areas with Versarmark and sprinkled on yellow embossing powder and heat it again. And then I inked up the stamp with Versamark and tried to position it back on the card on the same spot and heat embossed it with another darker brown embossing powder. Finally I used some glitter embossing powder on the stamens of the flower before heating it again for one last time. The blue card base has a watermark of the very same stamp. It's not really obvious now that its covered with the yellow cardstock.
The heat embossing was quite tedious, but I love the results. And I must say I love these jumbo clings! I made another project with the same stamp and will share it soon :)

4 lasting footprints:
you did it girl..big and beautiful luscious flower for your mom! I have the embossing powder and heat gun sitting in the lowest shelf of my craft cabinet since early last year...as you said...tedious...scared me to death..lol. But it is worth the time spent creating lovely card for someone very dear to our heart.
Happy crafting & hugs,
Heaney
