using re-inkers
 

Hello Everyone!!!
I thought I'd try to get some different ideas as to using the re-inkers. I have a class coming up and thought that I'd try something new! I will be using mulberry paper on one of the cards. Do you have any other ideas?
TIA,

What is the "baby wipe technique"?

Baby wipe technique

Love re-inkers!

Materials needed are clear acetate, reinkers, white glossy cardstock. I wear rubber gloves when doing this.
Place the same size paper under the acetate as the glossy you'll be coloring as a guide.
Place drops of reinkers on the acetate to cover the desired area.
Place the glossy white cardstock onto the acetate and rub. I like having some white spots in the color but if you have to many you can drop more reinkers and repeat the process in that area.
I'm not sure if this is the same as smaking acetate. I came across it accidently when I spilled some ink and couldn't let it go to waste. I then decided acetate would be a better surface than my table top to repeat the technique! I linked a card if did from my gallery below.

I've seen two ways to do baby wipes with re-inkers.

1) Lay out a couple of baby wipes in a container. Drop ink of different colors onto the baby wipes. You basically are making a multicolored ink pad. When you have the combo of colors you want, stamp just like using a pad. Looks great with something like Stipple Celebrations, or solid stamps.

2) Drop the ink onto the baby wipe, then swipe it directly onto the paper to make a background.

Sounds like a neat idea. I am going to have to try this. Thanks!!!

Here's a whole list I found on SCS:

Many thanks for all the ideas! I'll have to give them a try!!

How about having them practice re inking a pad?

Not sure how big your class would be or if this would be of interest but this is what we did in ours last week and it was TOO cool!
