Does anyone know how to do the reverse grid?

yess.....all you do is take your scoring blade and score at even intervals then turn the card around and cross score at even intervals. this causes indentations in the paper which you will then stamp on top of. Does this make sense? I usuall score at 1/2 inch or 1/4 for a small card. Play with it and see which works best for you.

wow, yes it makes sense thanks. Ok another dumb question, what is a scoring blade? an exacto?

this technique was done in the Technique Junkies Newsletter (www.patstamps.com - a subscription based technique newsletter) - in the 08/06 issue - along with Faux Grid, and Colored Reverse Grid.

The Scor-It gives a much deeper score impression.

The scoring blade mentioned usually comes with your fiskars 12 inch cutter when you purchase it - it's black (and resembles the orange cutter, but is meant for scoring)
