Back Ground Leaves Iron Off Technique With Smile Sentiment

Cut a piece of green cardstock slightly smaller than the card front then create an iron-off embossed background panel.

Adhere the completed panel to the centre of the card front. Die-cut the sentiment from black cardstock, layer onto a piece yellow cardstock trimmed into a banner shape and adhere to the card front to finish.

Leave the panel to cool then use an ink-blending tool to apply different colours of Distress Ink as shown.

Once the colours are blended as desired, spritz the inked panel with water then leave to dry.

Add a couple of sheets of watercolour paper above and below the inked panel and iron until you can see the embossing residue soaked into the paper. Check it has all been removed and iron again if needed.

Trim the panel diagonally and position onto the green cardstock panel.
