This is my second attempt at TLC183, and I think I've finally got it! I didn't realize that to get the embossed look you had to stamp your image the second time in the same color as your cardstock. I kept trying to stamp white on white and it looked like I just stamped it twice...not embossed. Then I tried different inks than the color of my cardstock, and that looked messy and not quite right. But this, looks embossed. And now I am very happy with this technique because I can take any image in my stamp sets and give it an embossed look. I also embossed the background using this same technique. The main image is mounted up on dimensionals.

Very pretty! I'm so glad you experimented with the colors...I did the same thing with Vanilla on white, and it just looked offstamped! This is GORGEOUS! WOW!
