Technique Thursday - Rock n Roll

Rock & Roll Technique Directions: 1) Tap stamp on light-colored ink pad (Lucky Limeade). 2) Press edges of stamp in a rolling motion on darker ink pad (Island Indigo), being careful not to ink the center of the stamp. 3) Stamp your image. Tips: Always use the lightest colored ink first to avoid getting dark ink on your light ink pad. This technique works best when using a bold stamp image. Supplies used: Circle Circus Stamp Set Petite Pairs Stamp Set Island Indigo and Lucky Limeade Card Stock Lucky Limeade Ruffled Ribbon Scallop Oval Punch Large Oval Punch Island Indigo Stampin Pad Lucky Limeade Stampin Pad Big Shot Houndstooth Embossing folder Dimensionals Find all these supplies in my online store here. Remember it is Back to Spool time, every $40 order gets you a free 3/8" Satin Stitched Ribbon. Hope you have a wonderful Thursday! Inky Hugs, Becky
