Ghosting
by Beate Johns
Another name for Versamark™ resist, this technique's not scary at all!
Supplies
- Glossy white cardstock
- Versamark™
- Stamps, Unity Stamps used here
- Water based Ink, Faded Jeans Distress ink used here
- Blending Tool, Sponge or Brayer
Step-by-Step
-
Step 1
Stamp images in Versamark™ on your glossy cardstock. Everything stamped in Versamark will resist the ink applied in the next step.
Hint:
The more you let the Versamark dry, the more defined your resist images will look like.
-
Step 2
Sponge ink over the cardstock.
-
Continue to apply ink until the entire piece of cardstock is covered.
-
Step 3
Buff cardstock with piece of cloth of paper towel. The ink over your Versamark images will rub off.
Your ghosted image is done. Use as main image or continue to Step 4.
-
Step 4 (Optional)
Stamp over your ghosted background.
-
Step 5
Finish your card.
