- In today's video, I demonstrate how to do the popular Reverse Emboss Blackout Technique using 3D embossing folders and Catherine Pooler Ink Pads. You'll see how easy this technique is for anyone to accomplish! Other products used are: Momento Tuxedo Black ink, Sizzex Big Shot, AlteNew Embossing folders, Blending Brushes and a silicon craft mat.

I use a Brother label maker to print out the Big Shot sandwich recipe for each of my embossing folders and I put the label directly on the folder so I can quickly create the correct pressure. For instance, BLUE PLATE, or 1 STANDARD PLATE & 1 SHIM. I stick it right on the folder for the next time. Great time saver!
Hi Tricia - that's a brilliant idea to use your label maker to label your embossing folders! Guess what is now on my list to do! That's such a better idea than the sheet of notepaper I have been writing the sandwiches on. Thank you for sharing that excellent idea! I hope others here, see your comment so they can also take advantage of this great idea! Thank you for watching my video and leaving such a great suggestion!
That’s smart😊
I really liked the second panel. The blue color was beautiful over the color blended flowers and leaves.
Hi Marie - Thank you for watching my video! It's been fin to see how popular that blue one has become! I appreciate your leaving a vote for it!
This is very creative and your cards came out quite lovely. If I may suggest some tips that might be helpful: 1. Always mist your paper with water before embossing, then heat dry. 2. use non-tacky tape on your fingertips when holding your panel down. No inky-fingers or fingerprint smuggles on your work.
Hi Wendy! Thank you for watching my video! I appreciate those tips! I will give those a try!
I love the blue.
Thank you! I appreciate your watching my video and telling me which was your favorite!
Oh my I love the navy! What a happy accident. Thanks
Hi Evelyn! Happy accidents are the best kind of accidents in my book! It seems many people loved the navy one, which is surprising! Thank you for stopping by to watch my video and leave me a nice comment!
My favorite is the blue/purple! I love this technique. Can't wait to try it! Thank you for the inspiration! 🙂
Hi Vicki! Another vote is noted for the blue one! That ones seems to be the favorite of the ones from this video! I hope you'll give this a try, it is really alot of fun! Thank you for taking time to watch my video and leave me your vote!
I'm excited to try it! You made it look so easy!
The blue one gets my vote.
Me too!
Thank you! It's looking like more and more prefer the blue one! What a fun experiment this was! Have you tried this technique? Thank you for coming by to watch my video and I appreciate your vote for the blue one!
@@auntlizard262 You have the best username! I bet there is a good story behind AuntLizard! Your vote has been noted in favor of the blue one! I think that one is winning at this point! :) Thank you for coming by to watch my video and put in a nod for the blue one!
Love both but BLUE one is my favourite!! Thank you
Hi Moria! Thank you for watching my video and putting in your vote for the blue one! I think that has become the most liked one at this point! :)
I love the blue one!
Hi Barbara - Another vote is in for the blue one! Thank you for taking time to watch my video and let me know which was your favorite!
Your play time experience worked out beautifully❣️I love both versions and can't wait to see the cards being made🩵
Hi Cynthia - Thank you so much for your sweet comments! I appreciate your stopping by to watch my video and I hope you'll return for the next 2 parts of this technique/making of some of the cards!
Pink is my favorite color. Has been my whole life! But I really LOVE the blue flowers! It's definitely my favorite of the two panels❤
Hi Shelia! Another vote for the blue one! I love Pink too and although I loved the pink one, the blue one is definitely growing on me! Have you tried this technique? Thank you for stopping by to watch my video!
No, i have never inked my embossed papers. It looks very easy though. I usually "crank" out a few at a time, because i have a big shot with the handle. It's sort of a pain to spend 15 min trying to get just the right pressure!!! I know you get that!!!😅@CampHappyMail
@@sheilastiles01 Hi Shelia - Oh I certainly understand that !! ha ha! And one of my viewers just left me a comment that Sizzix has a chart on their website that has the sandwiches for each companies embossing folder and they also sell that gray plate! I am heading over there to find that chart!! BTW: You sound like me, I often make more than one card at a time. I find it easier and a better use of my time to make 2-3 cards at once rather than just one at a time!
My favorite is the blue one. It's gorgeous!
Hi Karen! Another vote for the blue one! I think there are people now that like the blue on over the other, which completely amazes me! Thank you for taking time to watch my vide and for leaving me a nice comment!
I love the cards! My favorite color is blue so I’m going to go with that one. Both are beautiful.
Hi Angela! Blue is one of my favorite colors too! I am happy that you liked the blue one! Thank you for coming by to watch my video and leave me such a nice comment!
I prefer the second one, but I love blues so this probably swayed me. Both pretty.
Thank you for stopping by to watch my video! I still like the pink one too but that blue one is growing on me! I appreciate your nice comment letting me know your preference!
I appreciate the "mistakes" and the process you go through to fix them. In reality we only think it's a mistake, the card receiver just looks at the card as a wow.
You are absolutely right! So often I get caught up in the mistakes I make during the process and I have to keep reminding myself that the receiver will never perceive anything on the card as a mistake. I have never had anyone return a handmade card because they thought I made a mistake. The part 2 of this video shows another way that I overcame making the same mistake (with the ink blended panel that was then run through the embossing folder afterwards). It turned out so unique and was the main reason I decided to keep the footage and do a Part 2 before making some of the panels into cards. I hope you'll come back to see part 2 for more ideas! Thank you again for stopping by to visit my channel and leave me your nice comment!
I like both of them and think they are interesting and that's what I like about it. pat
Hi Pat! They are definitely interesting, as each one comes out different from the last! I like that about them too! I hope you're going to give this a try! Thank you for coming by to watch my video and leave me a comment!
I like both but leaning toward the blue, they will both make lovely card fronts.
Thank you so much for watching my video and leaving a vote towards the blue one! The video showing the blue one made into a card is posting tomorrow morning!
Ive been wondering how this technique was done. Thank you for showing me how Maureen🌹
Hi Betty! Thank you for watching another one of my videos! I am happy that you watched this one and learned how to do this technique! I have 2 more parts coming up to this one where I will show what happens when you ink over a panel that you ran through the embossing folder the wrong way and also the making of at least 2 of the panels into cards! I hope you'll give this technique a try - it is alot of fun!
Oooo, I love the blue one!!
Hi Dawn! I think more people like the blue one than the pink one! It's been so much fun to see so many people liking the blue one! Thank you for stopping by to take the time to watch my video and leave me your vote on the Blue!
Admire you just creating as you go with your thought process. 😊. I like the blue! Unique ❤
Hello! Thank you for your nice comment! I love just turning on the camera and seeing what happens when I pull out a bunch of supplies to play with. Sometimes there's nothing to share but other times something fun comes of it, like this video! I especially love coming across "new to me" techniques and trying them for the first time! And that blue one seems to have become the favorite among viewers! I'm looking forward to trying this with other colors now! Thank you for coming by to watch my video!
Love the blue one ❤
Hi Pam! Thank you for adding your vote for the blue one! That one has become quite popular!! Thank you for watching my video!
Love the red one!! Mrs. Ed
Hi Mrs. Ed! (I love your handle!) The red one was pretty in my opinion as well! Thank you for watching my video and leaving me a nice comment!
These are beautiful! I normally migrate to the pink flowers but I think I really like how that blue turned out!
Hi Gail - thank you so much for coming by to watch my video! The more I look at the blue one, the more it is becoming my favorite of the two! I can't want to try it with other swiping colors! have you tried this technique? Thank you again for coming by and leaving me a nice comment! I appreciate it!
I have not tried it yet, but because of your video I am going to. Thanks
@@gailgale2375 Oh you're going to have so much fun!! Just remember - it can look like a total hot mess and it will still turn out beautifully!!
Thanks
Well done...I love that blue panel
Awe thank you Tamara! :)
Thank you! ✂️💌, I’ve struggled with same frustration on these platforms! I use sharpie to mark numbers on the setup to load. I took photos and printed pages and added notes and placed in a tabbed notebook. Since I’m blessed to have several cut machines now. Manufactures could had made universal thickness for all machines. Julia is my savior in all paper crafts! Love her❤️suggestion on colors, get you a color wheel. Helps in colors go with what!
Hi! Thank you for stopping by! These platforms do drive me a little bonkers with none of the embossing folders being the same thickness! I just picked up a set of individual platforms made by Spellbinders, that I have heard others have used with their Big Shot. Once I receive them and have had a chance to figure them out, I will do a full review incase others, like yourself, might be interested! Oh and Julia is amazing isn't she? I love her style and how she comes up with such unique ways to use her scraps! She is a queen at using her scraps to make lovely cards! And thank you for your tip on the color wheel. By day I am a professional artist and love, love, love the color wheel! It's a wonderful tool for picking colors for projects. I was going to cut the part about adding the purple to the brown but decided to leave it in as a "teaching moment" for those that may not have known that purple and green make brown. You are a smart cookie and obviously recognized it immediately, which is super cool! I have great admiration for those that know and understand the color wheel because it can get quite complex sometimes! Thank you again for stopping by to watch my video! I appreciate it!
Hi
I'm watching for the first time.i like the Pink Roses best, but they are both pretty. Carol Bradbury
Hi Carol! Thank you so much for taking the time to watch my video! I appreciate your leaving me a nice comment! The pink rose one is still is a favorite of mine too! Thank you again for watching my video on this technique! I hope you'll give it a try too!
Sizzix has a chart that tells you what plates to use for each manufacturers embossing folder. Sizzix sells many plates including the grey one.
Thank you Deborah! I had not even thought to check their website for that information! I will head over there and see what I find, that could be a huge time saver! Also- it's good to know they sell that gray plate too! Thank you for leaving this comment for me and my viewers, super helpful!
@@CampHappyMail You are welcome.
Fabulous video, I love doing this technique and I really love your experiment with the blue background, it looks awesome! Both panels are beautiful but if I had to pick a favourite, it would be the blue purely cause it is different. xxx💖💖💖
Hi Christine! Thank you so much for watching my video! This technique is so much fun, isn't it? The results are so different every single time! I think that is what I like most about it. Oh and the blue one has surely become the most liked one. I am planning to try it with different colors besides black (and blue) just to see how they come out. have your tried colors other than black? Thank you again for watching my video and also for leaving my such a nice comment! I appreciate it!
@@CampHappyMail You are welcome! I haven't tried any other colour but black yet but will be trying other colours after watching your video. xxx💖💖💖
I also have a Big Shot. With my Altenew 3D Folders, I am able to use my Extended Platform, totally closed (Tab 2), a thin, glossy advertising mailer, my 3D Embossing Folder (with 110 lb. cardstock inside), and one cutting plate on top. That tends to always work for me with the Altenew folders.
I have had trouble figuring out the correct combination for Spellbinders 3D Embossing Folders. I need to write the instructions down.😊
I had no idea that I would ever be able to make cards, but it really helps take your mind to a beautiful place for a little while. I love lots of color and learning new techniques.
Thank you so much for taking time to make a video to encourage everyone to try a new technique and keep our creativity flowing. I love the Blackout Technique. It tends to work well especially on embossing folders where there is more space between your florals, etc.
H! Thank you for sharing the way you use the altenew folder with our bigshot! I will give that a try when I am back in my craftroom again. I have one spellbinders folder but I have not used it yet (I will in July when I start to make Christmas cards). I am happy that you enjoyed my video. You should give cardmaking a try! It really isn't difficult and it definitely is a hobby that will get your mind off of other things for awhile. Thank you for coming by to watch my video and leave a nice comment for me!
Love them both , going to try that!
Hi! Thank you for taking time to watch my video! I'm excited that you're going to give it a try! It's alot of fun and you really can't mess it up! Have fun with it!!
Thanks, for sharing I love both. They are beautiful ❤
Hi Amaryllis - what a pretty name!! Thank you for stopping by to watch my video and leave me such a nice comment! I am glad you enjoyed seeing these being created!
Both very beautiful x
Thank you so much Lindsay! I appreciate your stopping by to watch my video and leave a nice comment for me!

Awe, thank you Edith! They were so much fun to make! I hope you'll give this technique a try! Thank you for leaving me such a sweet comment!
I love both of these❤ very beautiful
Hi Bridget! Your name made me smile because the Bridget Jones movies were favorites! :) Have you given this technique a try? Is so much fun and so easy to make quick beautiful cards! Thank you for watching my video and leaving me a nice comment!
@@CampHappyMail I have not yet. I’m in work mode right now and my craft room is literally under construction. i’m dying to try it!
they are both gorgeous 😅! thx❤
Hi Pebbles! Thats a fun name too! Lots of people here have pretty and fun names! :) Thank you for taking the time to watch my video and leave me a sweet comment! I am happy you stopped by!
I prefere the blue one. ❤

i have never heard of this technique before so it was an interesting video for me
Hi Thelma! I hope you'll give it a try! It can be alot of fun and it's an easy way to create a nice panel for a quick card! Thank you for stopping by to watch my video, and for leaving me a nice comment! Thank you also for subscribing!
Thank you for sharing your process! I always wonder who was the first crafter that thought to create this technique! Amazing stuff!
Hello! You know, that is something I always wonder too - who comes up with the different techniques! I love coming across new techniques to try so I hope whoever they are, that they don't stop! Thank you for coming by to watch my video and leave me a nice comment!
Love the blue card with the pop of pink.
Hi Wendy! Thank you for your vote on the blue one! I think the Blue one has definitely taken over the lead as the most favorite! Thank you for coming by to watch my video and put in your vote!
Beautiful! I think when you thought you ruined it with the very dark flower, I didn’t think so at all and then when you put on the black, it just enhanced the dark flowers, specially with the black going into the flowers…great technique!
Hello! Thank you for sharing your thoughts! I thought for sure that I ruined that one but I am glad I kept going with it! All of the cards made from these experiments were unique and it is so hard to pick a favorite! Thank you for watching my video! I hope you'll give this technique a try!
Now subscriber, what a great idea! Tfs
Hello! Thank you for watching my video on this technique and for subscribing! I hope you'll give this technique a try - it is truly so much fun!
This was my first time visiting your channel. I was intrigued by this blackout technique because it’s new to me. What a fun way to ink an embossed image. I was loving the pink one and then you had that happy lil accident with the blue ink! Oh my goodness, it’s stunning! I’ll have to give this one a try! Thank you for sharing!
Hi! Thank you so much for visiting my channel! This technique really intrigued me too when I started seeing the cards popping up on Instagram. I couldn't resit trying it! It is so easy to do and even if you "mess it up" you can still turn it into a useable image! I hope you'll give it a try!! Thank you again for watching my video and leaving me a nice comment!
Hi Maureen, this was a fantastic video. You are very brave trying out new techniques for the first time on these videos... well done you! 👏
I loved your honesty by keeping all your mistakes in as let's face it we all try something that doesn't work... although we can throw our mistakes away without anyone knowing...LOL!!! 🤣I loved how you worked through them and showing us how you find solutions.
While both de-bossed panels were beautiful, I really liked the second one with the blue background. There was just enough pink on the flowers, and green foliage that remained which would make a beautiful card. I wonder how this technique would go swiping the panel with distress oxides??? Sorry, that is just a thought that came to my head. 🙃
Maureen, I would love to see your craft space in a video when you are ready, but in the meantime thank you for sharing your ideas and crafting talents with us.
God's blessings, Gloria 💖
Hi Gloria! Thank you for coming by to watch this new video!! You are so sweet! Honestly, trying the techniques for the first time on video is so much fun for me because it forces me to figure out on the spot how to fix something if I mess it up! I love the challenge! And I have to agree with you on the blue panel now that I have made it into an actual card, it has definitely become a favorite! You brought up an interesting idea - about the distress oxides. I added that to my list to try. I am curious as to how regular ink will interact with the distress oxides but I may try it with Distress Inks and Distress Oxides since I am pretty sure those might work together better. Definitely some things I will be experimenting with! Do you use Distress Oxides?
Thank you for being interested in seeing my tiny craftspace! I am working on a few videos about it (the setup, organization and overall working in a tiny space in an equally tiny apartment!).
Thank you again for coming to watch another one of my videos! It's so nice of you to come by and leave me such sweet comments!
I have to say I love the blue panel
@@lisaobrien8060 Hi Lisa! Thank you so much for watching my video! I’m glad to hear someone else likes the blue one too! It’s definitely become a favorite of mine now too! Thank you again for coming by and also for leaving me a nice comment!
@@CampHappyMail Hey there Maureen, I perhaps don't use my distress oxides enough in my craft studio considering that I have their entire collection of colours PLUS their re-inkers!!! YAY... yes, I do have all the D Oxide re-inkers... happy days!!!
If I could type this next bit in really tiny print, I would so that no one can quite read what I am about to say... I don't use the distress oxides inks for what they were designed to do being for backgrounds, and then to activate with splashes of water.
Instead, I often use the oxides for blending, stamp then emboss, I also do a stencil watercolour technique with the oxides which is totally fun to do and one of my favourites.
Yes, I wonder how using distress oxides with other brands of ink would go..., maybe I might go and play around to see what happens after all that is how new things in our craft happen. I might have to get out my embossing folders and try some of these techniques with distress oxides as well.
Happy crafting and creating! 💖
@@gloriaonesimus6244 I feel like we could have wonderful crafty conversations! You are so lucky to have the full set of distress oxides and the re-inkers! Oh the techniques that can be done with those tools! Your comment about the small print made me laugh! Shhh don't tell but Like you, I rarely use my distress oxides for what they were intended (just simple backgrounds with water splatters). Last weekend I sat on my balcony and ink blended through stencils and then sprayed the stencils that had residual ink on them and pressed paper onto those to make reverse stencil imprints. THey almost look like they were watercolored! I am currently turning those into thank you cards! I am curious about how other inks will interact with the distress oxides, since we know they react to water, so water based ink pads could be interesting. I will be trying this when I am back in GA where my craft stuff is. I think there should be a number of videos coming up using distress oxides in unconventional ways.... Hmmmm..... :)
I love the blue with the pink highlights. The black is dramatic but is always used. The blue is new, so it pops more. My eye is drawn more to the blue.
Hi Andrea - you are so right! The black is so overdone so it was fun to try it in a different color! I am planning to try this with some other background colors to see how they turn out. I've not decided if I will video those attempts because I don't know if that would be too much airplay on the same kind of technique. Thank you for stopping by to watch my video and cast your vote in favor of the blue one!
NEW SUBSCRIBER
Thank you so much!!
I like both panels. I will have to try this technique. It looks fun. Great wow factor.
Hi there! Oh I do hope you will try it! It truly is alot of fun! I think one of my most favorite parts is the actual ink blending, knowing I can go out of the lines and make a total mess but still end up with a beautiful panel to use on a card! Thank you for taking the time to watch my video and leave a nice comment for me!
Blurple is the name of the color you made both are quite pretty
Hi Alisa - Blurple! I love it!! Thank you for coming by to watch my video and leave me such a fun comment! Blurple is my new favorite word!
Except it’s not just paper, it’s usually some kinda pricey card stock we’re using. That’s why I do not like that phrase. However, I appreciate the sentiment thanks for doing this video. Loves it!!
Thats a very good point! The cardstock can be pricey for sure. I will watch how I phrase things from now on because I totally understand the cost of supplies. Thank you for stopping by to watch my video!
blue one :)
Hi Leslie! Another vote for Blue! I am surprised how many people liked the blue one! Thank you for coming by to watch my vide and leave your vote!
Maybe if you tried using a brayer to add the black or navy ink, the ink wouldn’t sink into the coloured areas . Just discovered your channel. 😀
Hi Elizabeth! Ohhhh using a brayer - now that sounds like an interesting experiment waiting to happen (adding it to my list!). I bet that would work in place of the spongy/juicy ink pads. I think I will definitely be revisiting this technique to try the brayer! Thank you for suggesting that and also for coming by to watch my video! My channel is very new (just a few weeks old) but I am super happy you found me! I hope you'll return! Thanks again for coming by and leaving me a nice comment with a great suggestion!
These cards are awesome. I realize that the blue card was not what you intended but it is truly stunning. Thank you for showing an authentic video. I enjoyed it very much.
Navy is fabulous!
@@CampHappyMail i think that if you use a brayer you will disturb the depth of the debossing, but i suppose you could run it thru your big shot again, but more importantly, i think you may end up with brayer lines...PERSONALLY i love this technique as you demonstrated and i DO prefer your navy, i don't call this a happy accident, tho i do like that term, i call it a 'creative license to step out of the box'. Thanks for your video tutorial and now i will use the spongier (?) pads when i do this technique. cheers
Blue
1:09 me either, I’m with you sister
I feel like I’m gonna break it when I turn it then back out and try again, I always have my Mac n cheese cardboard to use… I guess I need to write down what I use, to save time and frustration
Oh Sandra, you and me both!! I worry all the time about breaking this machine! Mine is no longer under warranty and I would hate to have to replace it at this point because it is not that old. I also like to use a variety of shims but your idea of a mac and cheese box is a good one! I may give that a try instead of multiple sheets of paper! I have started to make a cheat sheet for my embossing folders so I don't have to spend so much time figuring out sandwiches. I wish companies made them more uniform! Thank you for taking the time to watch my vide and leave me a comment!
Could you somehow put a waxy layer over the flowers before you put the black? I'm thinking back when I was a kid and used crayon on paper so when I painted it the paint wouldn't stick to the crayon part. I'm just beginning card making. It's so fun!... And pricey!
Hi Mydaisydog! I love your name! I had a "Daisy dog" too (sadly, she passed in April 2023)... best girl ever.... Anyway - your comment has me thinking... I wonder if masking fluid, like you use for watercoloring, would work to keep the black off of the areas that you don't want it? I see some experimenting in my future! I may see if I can find a clear wax crayon too - your idea seems like it would work! I agree with you that cardmaking can be pricey. I am working on some videos "using what you have" and "using alternate things" if you don't have something specific. I love coming up with ways to do something without having to purchase something new. Thank you for stopping by to watch my video and leave me a great comment that now has my wheels turning!
When I figure out my sandwich I put the recipe for that folder right into the embossing folder.
Brilliant! I can’t believe that I haven’t been doing this! Thank you!
@@illawallaroo you are very welcome. Took me 3 x trying to figure the same sandwich before I wised up lol.
What a wonderful idea!!! Thank you
Hi Wanda - Thats a great idea! Thank you for sharing!
I've been working with this too. Mine is different is all the time... I get the sandwich thinking 🤔
Hi! Isn't is just so much fun? I could make dozens of these (I am on my way to that goal ha ha!). Every single one comes out so different! And oh, those bigshot plate sandwiches... some days they get the best of me! But someone here had a wonderful tip to use their label maker and mark each of their embossing folders with the sandwich once they figured out what works. I will definitely be doing this! Thank you for coming by to watch my video!!
