sharing a tutorial...



happy FRIDAY!

I like products that are versatile...
and
I LOVE it when they can be used several different ways...

 stencils can be used with my embossing pastes...
to create really cool texture & dimension...



you can trace the stencil with a waterproof pen,
 then add color 



you can ink thru the stencils with distress inks...
using a blending tool...
and then stamp thru the stencil, for a cool result...



I thought I'd share a tutorial today,
that I did for the Ranger blog...

this is another way to use the same stencil...
and a twist on using tim's distress embossing powders...


the dabber is GREAT thru stencils!

here's a peek...


you'll find the finished tag on Ranger's blog...

here...

and you'll find the list of ingredients and the 
"how to" steps on 
the project page on Ranger's site...


I hope you have an inky weekend...
make a tag!


if you need a little inspiration...
take a sip...



then...

make art!
