OCC day 3 — Layered Inking

By KariV on February 4, 2015 in Paper Crafting

This may very well be my FAVORITE technique so far in Online Card Classes Clean & Simple 4!! Jennifer McGuire always knocks it out of the park!

This is an awesome and new-to-me technique called Layered Inking. She inked the background with Hero Arts ink (or Wplus9 or Simon Says Stamp) and then stamped over it with versamark ink. The Versamark stamps clear at first, but then it has a reaction with the ink and after it dries, the impression is beautiful! Here’s my example:

Since I only have ONE color of hero arts ink (Butterbar), that was the color I used for my background! Then I stamped over it in the clear ink and LOOK at that! Awesome.

I love that little panda set from Mama Elephant. Makes me smile everytime!
