i learned a new technique and had to try it out. this technique kinda combines emboss resist and layering using a brayer, i'll go into detail about this technique in just a minute. i found the snowflake stamps (cube stamp w/ 4 sides) for $1 at michaels. used SU Bblue, Wwhite, and Bblack CS, and SU Bblue & NQnavy inks. ribbon is also a $1 michaels find. so now on to this cool new technique..............step one: heat emboss images (bold images are best, i used versamark ink and embossed w/ glassy powder).
step 2: ink your brayer w/ a the lightest color of ink that you want on your card and bray your cardstock. (wipe off excess ink with a tissue)
step 3: use a sticky note to cover portions of your paper (i used large circle punch w/ my sticky notes in 3 spots, and very small circle punch in 3 spots). if you don't have circle punches, the "coluzzle" system works well, too!
step 4: ink your brayer with a darker ink and bray your cardstock.
step 5: remove sticky notes and look what you've got!
*you can repeat steps three & four many times, progressing towards darker inks.
hope you all have a great week and give this new one a try! when you do try it, let me know how they turn out! have fun!
