Stampscapes 101: Video 841 THE DARKEST CARD IN THE WORLD full video

I've always wanted to do a super dark card and have tried a couple in the past but I thought we might be able to open up some new doors with embossing. My hopes were that I could go black-on-black (or really dark) and have the black embossed images show up enough to read as foreground. I knew it was asking way too much of the embossing to show up without some kind of contrast so I tried the milky way type of background on this card. I thought it looked okay but I think some additional contrast would make it better. Maybe doing it on a flat black background instead of glossy so that the trees would be the only thing that's glossy instead of everything. Or, maybe, just some slight cloud formations with some white pigment ink before stamping the dark trees over the top. Will keep experimenting to find out.
