Wet on wet BLENDS and wet on dry LAYERS-Erin via Tim Holtz. I FINALLY GET IT! Erin, thank you-I’ve not done any of that inky stuff because I thought I’d have to be a watercolor genius. Ok back to your genius-ness! ❤️

Absolutely gorgeous card! I had no idea that I could burn embossing powder and get that effect. Thank you for sharing these great techniques.

[@reneecassidy7279]

Absolutely beautiful card and thank you for the rusting tips! I have burned embossing powder on occasion, but not on purpose! Do love ink smooshing for a lot of coloring!

[@iartistdotme]

It looks amazing - exactly what I would LOVE to receive and enjoy. Never, ever thought that my burnt embossing could look this great!

[@lorispitzer8289]

Thanks for an excellent tutorial. Easy to understand and follow... I never thought of using grunge/metallic embossing powders to give a rusty effect. Duh! So smart! Thanks, Erin!!

Oh, Erin! I just love the aged patina tub you created! I'm excited to try your layered ink smooshing on the tub filler foliage, too. Such a great tutorial! Many thanks! 💗
