(1)
Cut White
Gloss Paper
into 4
sheets – 4
1/4 x 5 1/2
(2)
On Non-Stick
Craft Sheet,
apply a
random
squiggle of
Adirondack
Metalllic
Mixative in
Copper.
Note:
Touch the
bottle tip
to the
Non-Stick
Craft Sheet
and lightly
lay out the
squiggle.
This
controls
where the
ink lands—no
need to
squeeze the
bottle.
(3)
Add
Adirondack
Alcohol Inks
in drops,
lines, dots,
etc. over
the metallic
inked area.
Note: Touch
the bottle
tip to the
Non-Stick
Craft Sheet
to lay
drops, lines
and dots.
This
controls
where the
ink lands.
(4)
Take a piece
of the Gloss
Paper –
GLOSS SIDE
DOWN – and
place onto
the inks on
the craft
sheet and
press. Twist
in one
direction
and remove.
It dries
almost
instantly.
(5)
For a second
generation
print, place
Blending
Solution
over the
remaining
inks and
make another
print on a
piece of
Gloss Paper
in the same
direction or
try twisting
in different
directions.
Now you have
two
monoprints
for use in
two cards.
(6)
Stamp image
over the
monoprint
background
with
Archival Ink
and let dry.
(7)
Take another
piece of
Gloss Paper.
Place a
piece of
felt on the
Alcohol Ink
Applicator.
Apply a row
of Copper
Metallic
Mixative, a
row of Pearl
Metallic
Mixative,
and a row of
Silver
Metallic
Mixative on
the felt and
immediately
start
pouncing the
Alcohol Ink
Applicator
onto the
Gloss Paper
on the
Non-Stick
Craft Sheet.
Change the
direction of
the pouncing
frequently
to keep the
technique
random. The
Gloss Paper
will dry
almost
immediately
and you will
have a cool
Metallic
Mixative
background
paper.
(8)
Trim the
stamped
monoprint
and layer
onto trimmed
gray
cardstock.
Layer the
gray
cardstock
onto the
Metalllic
Mixative
background
paper
(trimmed if
needed).
(9)
Cut lavender
cardstock in
half and
fold one
portion into
a card.
Adhere the
monoprint
layers to
the card.
Tip:
Clean off
the
remaining
inks on the
Non-Stick
Craft Sheet
by applying
Blending
Solution and
wipe with a
paper towel.
Quick and
easy!
