Technique Tuesday Rock ‘n Roll
We were really Rockin' and Rollin' at class this week – was wishing I had brought some music – but we made our OWN music (BIG GRIN)
The 2nd technique we did was Rock 'n Roll. This is a fun technique and one that adds some real pizzaz to your creations.
Here's the card we made
And here are the instructions
Supplies
Solid Image Stamp
Two coordinating colors of Ink (one light and one dark)
Card Stock
Instructions
Ink image with lighter colored ink
Ink the edges of the same image with the darker colored ink by rolling edges of the image on the ink pad
Stamp the image on card stock
Now is that simple or what – but it's a great way to highlight a stamp. A solid stamp works best, but anything will do 🙂
