I have another video up at You Tube on my TarheelStamper channel. Two cards I made with the techniques are shown below.
A quick run down of the steps to faux embossing technique are:
1. Stamp your image with Craft White Ink (pigment ink) on a piece of card stock and let dry.
2. Stamp your image on your imaging sheet using the stamp-a-ma-jig.
3. Using that stamped imaging sheet, position the image over the stamped image on the card stock so it is slightly off. I usually position mine to the right and down to make sure I get the same shadow effect every time. This is especially important for stamping several images on one piece of card stock.
5. Remove imaging sheet while holding the stamp-a-ma-jig in place.
4. Tap stamp on Classic ink pad (dye ink). The ink should be the same color as the card stock or versamark. I have never tried this with other colors.
5. Place stamp in corner of stamp-a-ma-jig and lower to paper leaving your stamped image. Now you have a faux embossed image. Continue with other images if needed.

Thanks for you kind comment! Using a less detailed stamp makes the faux embossing technique easier. It is so neat looking in real life.
Thank you for sharing this technique. I can't wait to try it!
