Sabrina is hosting today's Technique Lovers Challenge, TLC624. She asked us to "Give Tapestry a Try". Thanks, Sabrina, for introducing me to this technique! You selected a great one!
As instructed in the Tapestry Tutorial, I first sponged distress inks onto a piece of white card stock using pink, blue and yellow inks. When I stamped my images in SU Whisper White Pigment Ink (or Craft) and onto the now colored panel, the pigment ink would not show up over the distress inks. DonÂ’t know why, but thatÂ’s what happened. Thus, into the trash that panel goes.
Therefore, I decided to try Catherine Pooler's new inks. They are great, luscious inks and it took very little to sponge the colors onto another piece of white card stock that I cut out using a ODBD Lavish Layers Die. Using the Whisper White ink, I stamped my images onto the colored panel. It worked like a charm; except the inks dried too quickly.
No big deal, right! I covered the White Pigment Ink with Clear Embossing Powder and heat set the images. Then I covered the complete panel with VersaMark Ink, added clear embossing powder, and heat set. It worked! Well, now that I see it, I realize that the camera picks up everything, including my strokes of blue on the right-hand side. They donÂ’t appear in person. Love the camera; it never lies!
Thanks for viewing and commenting! Have a happy Monday!
