Stampin' Up! Emboss Resist & Brayering

Stampin' Up! have foam brayers (141714) in the 2017-18 annual catalogue and they are soooo much fun!  I coupled this with the Colour Me: Irresistibly Floral Specialty DSP (Designer Series Paper) in the Sale-a-bration brochure to simply demonstrate the brayering technique.

The Irresistibly Floral paper is Whisper White card stock that is pre-embossed clear, so the paper appears white with a glossy pattern.... gorgeous... and then can can brayer over it in any desired colour to reveal the pattern...
A Crafty Cat: Stampin' Up! Brayering technique
Simply ink your brayer up by running the foam roller over and over an ink pad and then roll your brayer over the paper....

 It is a stunning technique and so many effects can be created!...

Brayering can change the look of a card, enhancing colour depth when added to card stock or can reveal a beautifully embossed pattern that you've created or Stampin' Up! has created.  When coupled with coordinating paper and ribbon or other embellishments, the combination is nothing short of stunning...
