One thing I love about reverse images is the plethora of techniques that become available to use in conjunction with them. One of my favorites is emboss resist.
First I stamped french script onto my cardstock. I then stamped my reverse fern image with Versamark and heat embossed with clear powder.
I then sponged olive ink over the image, allowing it to feather softly around the edges. I made sure to "polish" the embossed area when I was done, making sure the excess ink was wiped away.
This is such a fun technique that can be done with any of the five reverse images in the Papertrey set that will be released on Thursday. A few of you have asked if a special sized block will be needed. The large reverse images in this set measure 1.25 x 3 inches, so check through your stash and see if you have a block large enough. If not, the largest block included in Papertrey's set of three will do just the trick.
