hmmm...
TEMPTATION...
I couldn't resist...I NEEDED just a few minutes to play...
Here's the result... technique info below...
Using snow cap white PIGMENT ink, stamp your image...studio 490 of course...on a manilla tag.
HEAT DRY...it takes just a few seconds...
Then using the blending tool, with distress inks, rub over the entire image, until it pops.
At first it doesn't look like it will work...
TRUST ME...it does!
Keep adding ink & you'll see the magic happen right before your eyes!
For the sample above...
the heart is worn lipstick
the polka dot background is faded jeans
the gingham strip is peeled paint &
the small flower is mustard seed.
By adding just one more ink (white pigment)
you get another whole color pallette from the distress inks.
I love the possibilities!
Love that crochet trim?? I sure DO...I don't ever want to run out!
I bought enough to wrap around the whole house!
It's new from Maya Road.
You'll be seeing it on LOTS of my samples...COOL STUFF!
Back to packing...
glad I took a few minutes to...
make art!
