I’ve used the ‘pounce’ technique on a variety of metallic/glossy cardstocks. I’ve found that the pounce technique on highly detailed embossed images tends to detract from the detail. More solid / blended colors, on the other hand, lend themselves to foiling while the ink is still sticky. LOVE the pounce technique for backgrounds that support large images. And isn’t this just the best - to share what we’ve learned with others. 💕

Can you use a brush to paint on the alcohol ink on the embossing? Or must a stamp be used?

You should really just use permanent makers on these because that's what permanent markers are: alcohol ink.

It’s a stylus, not a stylist….🧐
