Color of the Month for June is Fern Green

Color of the Month for June is Fern Green. We love this soft green color because it reminds us of the beautiful plants that come bursting forward into the lushness of Summer. Some of the inks we recommend for this color are StazOn Cactus Green, VersaColor Fresh Green, VersaFine Clair in Green Oasis and Verdant.

Here is a sneak peek for what we have coming up this month…

To create this cool Rebel Canvas I used the new MBoss Hologram embossing powder with a fun, classic technique to create a stamped impression in the embossing powder. The new Hologram embossing powder is soooo gorgeous and fun to use. I love that the new MBoss packaging allows for precision application and easy cleanup!

Create A Unique Embossed Spiral Design On A Greeting Card

by Martha Lucia Gomez

Hello there! Today, I have a Mboss Spiral card that I made featuring the new Mboss Embossing Powder from Imagine. I had the opportunity to buy this spiral background stamp a long time ago during a vacation but I never used it. I couldn’t find exactly what project this spiral shape would fit with. Now that Imagine has released the Mboss Embossing Powder, I made decided to use it for an embossing color blend project.

Skill: Intermediate
Time: 1 hour

Directions


Step 1

I started my process using basic black card stock and the small inkpad (or cube) of the VersaMark. I placed my stamp inside of my stamping tool and applied the ink starting in the center. I stamped this part and covered with Valentine Mboss. Then I removed the card stock and melted the powder with the heat tool. I repeated the process several times using Princess Party, Birthday Party, Sparkle, and Lucky Stars. I applied VersaMark in a circular way to keep the spiral shape.


Step 2

I resized the stamped layer and added a whisper white mat before to paste over the basic black card base. I finalized the card adding a die cut flower and sentiment that I stamped with Memento Ink Lilac Posies.
