I wanted to try this technique out, so I took a piece of certainly celery and versamarked, put clear eb, drew lines with a scorer, and heated. Then after it dried, I rubbed it with some Distress yellow ink and Brilliance brown ink. Then I noticed my gator was not an outline stamped- so I inked him lightly and cut him out. He's hanging out at the bottom corner of my card with leftover scrap. I didn't know what to do next...
Well, then I decided to make the scraps for my turtle shell. My turtle needed a place to hang out- So I took soft sky, versamarked it, clear eb, and drew wavy lines. Heated it, let it dry, and rubbed white into it. That's when I knew what kind of card I wanted to make. I like to make cards and think/pray about a person it is for.
This card is for someone who is planning on traveling overseas.
I am late in leaving for a friend's, will have to come back and comment on others later!
