More Impression Obsession products for August

I have a simple project today - I got this background stamp late, and it was perfect for today's tutorial over at Splitcoast!


For the technique, the same image is stamped on the front and back side of the vellum, once heat embossed in white and once in a colored ink. I used IO hybrid ink on the back side, and just heated it lightly to set it. I'm honestly terrible at heat embossing, especially on vellum, so I'm really proud of myself! 


You can layer the vellum against a white background but I cut an opening in my card front, then sandwiched the card and vellum between 2 frame die cuts to hide my edges and keep any adhesive from showing. This background stamp coordinates perfectly with the leaves from the Eeyore set I shared yesterday, as well as my fall paper pack.

    What a great way to show off all those leaves! Thank you for sharing the technique -- and yes, embossing on vellum can be tricky!

    This is a wonderful BG stamp. It would be great with lots of leaf sets! I love the two sided approach you've taken with it.
