Today I bring you two cards for the Gina K Design Team Blog Hop! Our challenge this month was to use one of the techniques featured in a StampTV video! I knew right away which I was going to use, because I’ve been wanting to do it ever since she said she was making a video about it! I had purchased an Impressibilities die several months ago and could never really get an impression from it so I set it aside. Well - now I used it two different ways and got great results!
First I tried it just using the regular emboss/deboss technique. I think it is all about the sandwich you use here. I have a Wizard from Spellbinders, but for this I drug out my Cuttlebug. And it worked like a charm! You can find the video here: Impressiblities Using Your Cuttlebug.

Next I decided to try another of her videos using the die - because why not! This time I went with the Letterpress technique and it turned out great too! I used Versamark ink instead of a colored ink because I wanted a more subtle color, but I think it looks great either way! Here is the video: Letterpress with Impressibilities.

Enjoy!
