More Inking…
Hi!
When I got back from Ranger U a few months ago, I spent the next weekend playing with the techniques… coming up with new stuff and learning more by playing. All in preparation for the class I was hoping to teach with 2peas. So glad it has started – such fun.
I thought I would go ahead and share a few of them…
This first one shows inking and flicking with water, as shown in the first Thinking Inking video HERE. I also punched the butterflies from yummy Studio Calico paper and covered them with Glossy Accents. Love that stuff. This is pretty distress-y for me, but that was what made creating it fun.
Supplies: Hero Arts stamps (greeting, script), Studio Calico patterned paper, Paper Studio butterfly punch, Hero Arts pearls, Glossy Accents, Distress Inks
For this next one, I masked off a rectangle area in the center of a notecard. I then inked it with Broken China Distress Ink (blue) and brushed with perfect Pearls. So, you can't see it in the picture, but the blue is shiny/pearly. So cool in real life.
Supplies: Hero Arts stamps (greeting, stem flourish) and flowers and gems and notecard :), Distress Inks
This is another one of my made-with-scraps cards. That is one of my favorite things about the techniques done such as distress inking, water stamping, etc. There are always delicious scraps leftover. Always. I save these in a basket and reach for them often. These we leftover pieces of stamped Distress Ink images… I just punched hearts from them. So easy and fast.

Well, I am off to hang with little Audrey. I adore her. She is such a good sister to her little brother who is never more than 2 steps behind her. Bless her heart.
Night night.
