Marjie Kemper here, with a Step X Step using the Tattered Florals die, layers of ink, stencils, and embossing powder. In the picture below, I'ved used Texture Fades to dry emboss all three flowers:
They look interesting, but check out how much better they are after I heat emboss them, too.
Just press the entire piece into a Versamark pad.
Then cover the flowers with clear embossing powder and heat with a heat tool.
Once they were all done, I realized they were too similar and I needed some contrast. So I cut a plain black flower and dry embossed it, and then cut another shape entirely and just heat embossed it (so it's totally smooth, almost glassy, with no added texture):
I used small chipboard pieces to pop up the top two layers
I ended up going with 3 of the 5 flowers, and saved the others for another project. Here's my finished card, which I shared on my blog the other day.
