Clear Embossing Resist
Materials:
- Smooth Cardstock
- Clear Embossing Powder
- Stamps
- Heat Gun
- 3 or more colors ink pads
Instructions:

Ink stamp with embossing ink.
 Stamp several images on smooth cardstock. Turn the stamp different directions and have some images only partly on the cardstock.

Pour embossing powder over stamped images. Pour excess back into container.

Heat & melt the embossing powder.

Ink dauber with your background ink color (has to be lighter than other colors). I've used a cosmetic pad but sponges, daubers, brushes all work - creating different looks.

Pounce on paper to achieve desired look - ink won't cover clear embossed areas.

Ink the stamp you used to emboss with the next lightest colors & stamp a few images - again turn your stamp and don't stamp all complete images.

Repeat with darkest color.
Use cosmetic pad or paper towel to wipe ink off clear embossed areas.
