I opted for the suggested alternate of blowing ink with a straw. Let me just say I needed a larger diameter straw or maybe younger lungs because this was a workout. Anyway, I had a good time with this first attempt and have three more backgrounds to use later.
I like the way the embossed areas blocked ink from the world stamp so that you mainly just see an outline. I also see why alcohol inks are preferred over water-based reinkers, but hey we live in a messy electronic world!

Great effect you have achieved with all these techniques. Let me say that I used a wider straw and thought that a narrower one may have been better. That or my lungs are really showing their age (quite possibly!).
