using Stazon ink – A Stamping Journey

I made this card recently. It resulted from a Happy Accident. I thought I would show you for our Wednesday’s WOW #168.

This is one of the flowers from the Thankful Garden Stamp Set. You could use any image though.

I was using it with Stazon and after I had stamped I wiped over the stamp with Stazon Cleaner and stamped it on scrap paper. It made the lines bleed but it looked cool. So I tried it again and this time I stamped on White card resulting in this effect giving it a washed out look.

I have tried it a few times since to replicate it. The results are different all the time. Some tips – Wipe over the stamp with the Stazon Cleaner. Stamp it off on to scrap paper very lightly first. Press firmly on to your card. Let it dry completely before finishing the card.

Be sure to clean your stamp carefully after you have stamped it.

Give it a go and see what you come up with.

I have had a number of people asking me recently which ink should they use when they are doing some of the different techniques. I was putting together a chart to share with them. Then this chart appeared in our Stampin’ Up! emails just today so I adapted it to share with them – and to you too as I am sure you ask yourself that same question.

So for Wednesday’s WOW! #58 today let’s look at the basic inks and see what inks to use.
