Inking explained....

In my post below I used the Cuttlebug folders for embossing as well as to transfer color to my paper.

To achieve this I used my brayer to apply ink to the raised part of the embossing folder and then laced the paper carefully on the folder and ran it through. For the word folder I did ink up the non-raised image because: 1: if you did the raised part of words they would be backwards 2: I wanted color over the whole image. Since the color was light and I wanted just the hint of color to blend with the rest of the brighter colors.

Looks like I need to do a video tutorial.....
