Hello and welcome to this week's Ways to Use It Challenge! I've had a fabulous summer, visiting family and friends and am back now getting crafty. One of my favorite inks is VersaMark, it is an amazing creation that can be used so many ways.
So for today's challenge I want you to use VersaMark! You can use it as a watermark, to emboss, for chalking... the possibilities go on and on.
Remember to use the keyword, WT336, when uploading your card so we can all see your card. You can view the entire gallery for this challenge HERE.

Michelle and Collette are helping me out with this challenge. Look at Michelle's adorable elephant card and Collette's lovely flowers! I went with a doily and used two VersaMark methods, chalking and as a watermark. Look for them in the gallery for more details!

What a fun challenge, Teresa! I know myself that I would never be without my Versamark. I have a new one, a dirty one, a reinked one plus some of their shimmer ones that I rarely use. VM is GREAT!! Thanks!
Fun challenge! Thanks, Teresa! Here's my Sew Special. Thanks so much for looking and if I don't get back to comment until late it's because I've been having a terrible time w/ my laptop and SCS. It just doesn't want to load the pgs. Sooooo annoying!
This was a fun challenge! I use VersaMark ink all the time, but today I wanted to use it for something really spectacular. This is a card that I made for my BFF at her husbands request for their 14th Anniversary. I think she is going to adore it. So for my Ways To Use it today I used the VersaMark ink in conjunction with 6 different colored Powder Keg embossing powders on the Tim Holtz Sizzix Birdcage and Bird. I use different sea sponges to apply the VersaMark ink as I layered the embossing powders to get this patina look on the birdcage. The bird has three layers of VersaMark ink and embossing powders. My friends leave Saturday for their anniversary trip to St. Augustine, FL so I will post more details on my blog on Sunday wen I know she is away from her computer.

I'm working my way through, will get through them all eventually! Love all the amazing cards! Isn't it wonderful how that one ink can do so many different and beautiful things for us?
Here is my Noel Collage card. I used Versamark to ink up the stamp and then I embossed it with clear embossing powder. The entire collage was then sprayed with red glimmer mist - so shimmery!
