The June Challenge at Crafter's Companion is SUMMER! And I told you before, hibiscus ARE summer for me. I heat embossed the leaves and blossom in clear onto water color paper. I colored them with distress markers and painted over them with water. When the piece was dry, I ironed it between some blank newsprint (most companies use it for packing material these days). This takes away the embossing and leaves a super neat batik look. This will probably happen ALOT in the future. Super easy, and my neglected iron got some love...some real love. (heh)
