Speedy the Cat Friends Challenge #50 - Emboss Resist

Welcome to Speedy the Cat's Friends challenge.  This week was my turn to set the challenge and I chose the emboss resist technique.  I inked the image from Mark's Finest Papers Just Dandy set with Versamark ink and stamped it inside the rectangle created from the embossed frame.  I embossed the image with clear embossing powder.  I masked off all around the rectangle with Post It notes and then sponged on the colors.  I then wiped off any ink from the clear embossed image.  I used a 3D butterfly sticker at the bottom.  Now it is your turn to play - check out all of the details here at Mark's Finest Papers blog.
Thanks for coming by!
