This week the Stampendous Design Team received some great products from Faber-Castell to play with. They were so generous! Today was the first time I have used Gelatos and I can tell you it won't be my last! The color goes on really nice and blends beautifully!
Here's the card that I created...
I first stamped this Live Creatively stamp by Stampendous with VersaMark ink and heat embossed with Stampendous Detail White Embossing Powder. This is where the magic begins...I applied the Gelatos from the red set in vertical stripes across my embossed panel and then blended them with my fingers and wiped the excess of with a baby wipe to expose the embossing. Doesn't get much easier than that!
I love the ombre effect! Now I need to go shopping to get some other color collections!
Stop by the Stampendous blog today to see who else has some beautiful inspiration to share with you today. And be sure to leave a comment here to be entered in the drawing for a great prize package!
Thanks for stopping by today - take time to get inky!

I really like what you've done with this resist embossing technique! The Gelatos seem to be pretty fool proof and easy to use!
THe blending of the colors looks great. Leave it to FC to make products that blend so well. You did an amazing job.

This is great. I'm just learning how to use my Gelatos and I love your background and am glad you explained how you did it. I'm going to give this a try tomorrow.
Hey Krissy! What a beautiful card. Love how you used the Gelatos. Spent some time going through your past posts to catch up. Loving the Gruffies and House Mouse you've been doing. Wanted to thank you too for your kind comments regarding the loss of my Shotsy. It meant a lot to me and was very much appreciated. Hope all is well in your world. Hugs, Curt
