I LOVE Thumping!! Thumping is a fabulous technique to use with silhouettes, so when I received Anna Wight's new Wildflower Silhouette (Whipper Snapper Designs) images, I knew I had to thump. And did I ever thump away. This has got to be the absolute easiest techniques to use. There are no mistakes. All you do is color your image with a water based marker (I used Stampin' Up!), and with a darker color tap around your image randomly. You can even use more than two colors like I did on the Mexican Hat flower. After you have the image inked up to your specification, spritz it a couple of times with an Extrafine Mister (I use Judikins...it's my favorite) and stamp! That's it....so easy. I added a bit of sparkle with Crystal Ultrafine Glitter (Art Institute) and my Quickie glue pen to *amp* it up a bit.
