Inking Techniques 

 

Hi there crafter's

 

Hope you are all enjoying this lovely weather

we are having at the moment. Summer has finally arrived.

Let's just hope its staying around for a while, lol.

 

 

Well we had a brilliant time down in Rugby last

month at Jayne Nestorenko's first workshop of the year.

We made the booklet with Jayne that I shared in

my last post. So this time I wanted to share with you

the toppers we made with the lovely and talented Helene.

She us just a whizz at inking techniques and the sessions with

her are just brilliant. Daz in particular enjoys these sessions.

 

Above is the first one we did, which involves stamping

and embossing in white fine powder, then inking over.

 

 

 

 

For the second one we learnt how to plan and mask

areas for the card topper.

We created our own scenery in the background which is

surprisingly simple and I have to admit very effective.

 

The stamps we used were by Inkylicious I do believe

and were very effective for this kind of scene building.

 

Here is Darren's wonderful topper, how brill is that.

 

 

 

 

We will be trying this technique again without a doubt,

 have you tried it?

 

until next time
