OCC Creative Chemistry 101 Stamping with Stains

Stamping With Stains Technique

Another neat technique. I purchased 1 set of 3 stains: chipped sapphire, spiced marmalade, aged mahogany. It mixed together to make numerous shades. Urban Tapestry stamp set was used with Hero Arts Intense black and white Hero Hues Pigment ink.

I really enjoyed learning this technique. It worked exactly as Tim described. I only have SU reinkers which worked fine.

Hmmm. I need more practice on this technique. Had a green, blue and gray Archival Ink. Background was Distress Mustard Seed. Pumice Stone along edges.  Stamps - Tim Holtz Ultimate Grunge, Lavinia - Cat and Stars.

Reinker Sprays Meet Winnie the Pooh

Re-Inker Sprays

I made ink sprays using my Stampin'Up! reinkers and Ranger Mini Misters. Added about 12 drops of ink and 3/4 water.  Worked great. Bought these cute, cute Winnie the Pooh stamps on Ebay. Ink embossed the SU embossing folder with Distress Old Paper ink. Sentiments are from Taylored Expressions Many Mini Occasion stamp and die set. 

OCC Summer Of Creative Chemistry Week 2

Re-inker Watercoloring

I've determined that water-coloring is difficult and I need a lot of practice.

This technique uses re-inkers on a palette and watercolor brushes or water brush/aqua painters. Ranger has a fine tip detail brush that I really like. I think I need to take the OCC Watercolor for Cardmakers class!

Also, not sure what to do with all these tags I'm creating. :)
