I stamped the bold sentiment with Versamark ink and embossed with clear powder, then sponged bold bands of distress ink over to go with the boldness of the sentiment. I spritzed the background with water and some mica spray to give it a sheen you can't see in the photo but looks lovely in real life, and then polished with a tissue to remove all the ink and mica from the lettering so that it pops out from the background.
I'm sharing this with CAS Mix Up where the challenge is Emboss Resist with mica spray being my extra technique, even though it doesn't show up very well in the photo!
