Paperville: Technique Twist Challenge 5: Emerging Color

It's our fifth challenge over at Technique Twist! Today our challenge is Emerging Color. Think about it as embossing in layers! Very fun! I have two samples for you today.

My first sample was a lot of fun to make!

Keep in mind you are working in layers. Whatever you stamp first will show through the clear embossing of whatever you stamp/emboss over it
First, I stamped a piece of Whisper White with the script image from Bordering Basics. I used Calypso Coral ink.
Second, I stamped Positively Chevron in versamark and clear embossed.
Then, using sponges, I rubbed colors all over the the clear embossed image. Where-ever the clear embossing is, the stamped image from Background Builders shows through. Other, non-embossed parts of the image covered the print.
I used a few different colors for the sponges: Tangerine Tango, Melon Mambo, Pacific Point. Where the colors overlap I got some cool colors!
Using a paper towel just rub over the image to remove any ink from the clear embossed layer.
I used Calypso Coral for the first stamped layer knowing that the colors I used for sponging would be darker...and would easily cover the first stamped layer.

stamps: Positively Chevron,Background Builders Banner Greetings

cardstock: Whisper White, Pacific Point, Tangerine Tango

inks: Versamark, Pacific Point, Tangerine Tango, Melon Mambo, Calypso Coral

other: Clear Embossing Powder, Brights Dots, sponges

My second sample is very similar to the first, just a different combination of stamps and colors and you can still see the bottom layer through the sponged ink.

The first stamped layer is the dictional stamp in Pacific Point on Whisper White.
The flower is from Betsy's Blossoms. I clear embossing the flower on top of the dictionary image.
Using sponges, I rubbed all over the flower image. I started with Daffodil Delight in the center of the flower, then a little Pear Pizazz and finally Pacific Point. Blending the colors together gives it a gradual yellow to green to blue look.
Use paper towel to remove any ink from the clear embossed layer.
