Ghosting
by Beate Johns
Another name for Versamark™ resist, this technique's not scary at all!
Supplies
- Glossy white cardstock
- Versamark™
- Brayer
- Classic ink
- Stamps
Step-by-Step
-
Step 1 (Optional)
Using Classic ink, stamp a background on glossy cardstock and let dry. This background will show up under your resist image.
-
Step 2
Stamp images in Versamark™ on your glossy cardstock. Everything stamped in Versamark will resist the ink applied in the next step.
-
Step 3
Apply ink over your images. I used a brayer, but you can sponge ink over them as well.
-
Step 4
Continue to apply ink over cardstock until you have a smooth coverage.
-
Step 5
Buff cardstock with a paper towel or napkin. The ink over your Versamark images will rub off.
-
Step 6
Finish your card.

My brain is a buzz with various looks, to try with this.
# Classic ink; what do you mean?

Classic inks are Stampin' Up!'s dye inks. Definitely don't use permanent inks for this.
I have a lot of supplies I don't know how to use! Take classes but learn SO much here
It works on regular cardstock, too, not just glossy.
