Blackout Embossing Technique 

Oh my word! The first swipe with black made me gasp. This is a way cool technique. Reminds me of velvet paintings, but in a good way. Love the 🍄 🍄 +

The first few times I watched this, I convinced myself I probably couldn't do it, but I was going to try. I'm stunned at how easy this is and how incredible it works.

All of these are real WOW cards Lydia - stunning!

I can’t wait to try this! I have a gorgeous Altnew folder that would be PERFECT for this technique! Thank you for sharing this!

This technique seems to be coming back again . Very pretty!

This technique creates super-effective cards, and yours are exactly that. I also saw other crafters use the brayer to apply black ink, perhaps it's easier than trying to be careful with the ink pad. You did a great job; those cards will bring joy to their recipients.

Love this technique and the embossing folders you used. I have a good number of Altenew 3D folders to try this on. Thanks for sharing.

This is a FABulous technique!! And I ran right into my stamp room to play! SO FUN!! Thanks for sharing it! :)

I love this technique. Reminds me of the technique where you color the paper first and then coat the embossing folder with black pigment ink. I like this one better because you can put the color down and know where it’s going. Gorgeous cards!

Absolutely beautiful I was speechless when you stated with the black 😊❤

This was such a cool technique. I gave it a try. I only had a 3D folder with leaves and loved how the black and green turned out.

Stunning cards- I just learned a new technique tonight and can’t wait to try it.

What a beautiful technique. They are so pretty.

Oh wow! If it wasn’t after midnight, I would run down to my craft room now to try this out. I love 3d embossing folders, and can’t wait to try out this (new to me) technique. The results are stunning. Thank you

I saw this on Splitcoaststampers and thought it was amazing, so I popped over here to RU-vid so I could give you a big THUMBS UP!! Thanks so much for sharing this technique. That mushroom embossing folder is also a favorite of mine, so I'm going to try this technique today using that folder. Finally another option for my unused EF collection!

How interesting! I did this technique several months ago following David Roodenburg's video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-8kLQhDSbFGs.html . He just painted the cardstock first & THEN inked the embossing folder with black. Inserted cardstock into folder and ran through die cut machine! Stunning results. Look forward to trying this version...either way, it's quite an impressive technique!
