Instructions  

(1) On ATC size Stampbord, push stamp pad onto surface to create “blocks” of color with coordinating colors of pigment ink. Speed dry time with Craft Tool. Add additional layers or blocks of color until desired look is achieved.

(2) Stamp Crowned Fleurish image onto Stampbord with Jet Black Archival Ink and let dry.

(3) With Scratch Tool, scrape away highlights, following the design of the stamp so the clay surface shows and creates texture and contrast.

(4) Cut matte, white cardstock to postcard size (4 and one quarter ” x 5 and one half ”).

(5) Apply matching tones of ink to cardstock with Ink Blending tool, starting from lightest to darkest color. To create a soft, blended effect, start with Ink Blending Tool off the paper, and move in a circular motion.

(6) Stamp image in center of card with Archival Ink.

(7) Create a layer of black matte cardstock just a little larger than the white cardstock and adhere with glue stick.

(8) Attach Stampbord to layered cardstock with a thin bead of Glossy Accents, aligning the images together.
