using dryer sheets as mulberry paper

[greeneyes9999]

Hello all!
I need help on using these as faux mulberry paper...i brayered them with classic burgundy ink and they are not drying... Help what did I do wrong???

Thanks!

i learned that it works best if you keep the dryer sheet in the dryer for many loads of laundry...then i lightly brayer...let dry...then do second application...let dry...until i reach desired color. i also apply heat with my hair dryer if i get carried away with the inking process...
hope this helps!

LOL! I just folded 4 loads of laundry and I use dryer sheets. What's this about faux mulberry paper?

I had my BC (Beloved Consort) bring up the used dryer sheet to test this out... love the idea! Thanks for the tip!

And to think I have been throwing my dryer sheets away!!!!

I have a special lingerie bag that i keep all the dryer sheets in...that way i can just reach into the dryer and pull out the bag when they are ready for stamping use!! - the more loads they've tumbled with -the better
i lay them out on my ironing board and get the big creases out. then the fun begins!!!
i don't remember the last time that i used my iron for actual clothes :lol:

......and.....you can also use the used dryer sheets like you would vellum....

it makes laundry time more enjoyable
