I have been having so much fun with the Imagine Crafts/ Tsukineko Memento Inks since John At Imagine Crafts let me in on a secret - Distressing is a technique - not dependent on an ink.....
and just for the record he is so right!! The Memento Inks work so beautifully with the Crayon Resist Technique - they have wonderful 'movement' when water in included in the technique - I love that end "splash" factor that adds those divine' watermarks!
The butterflies from the JustRite® Papercraft
- Botanical Swirls stamp set have been stamped using StazOn - Jet Back. I have used Memento Pear Tart, Cantelope and Tangelo for my background colours - these have been applied using Sponge Daubers.
I have also used the Spellbinders Grand Calibur® Machine to Cut, Emboss and Stencil the
Labels Eighteen Spellbinders™ Nestabilities® and to emboss using the Holiday Magic Spellbinders™ M-Bossabilities™ folders.
