Instructions  

(1) On white matte cardstock, stamp image with Archival Jet Black ink.

(2) Rub colors of Distress Ink on the Non-Stick Craft Sheet. Just place the ink next to one another and not on top of one another, as you want to keep the ink colors as pristine as possible.

(3) Spritz ink with water.

(4) Press white matte cardstock with stamped image on the inks. Turn over and dry with the Heat Tool. (Option: blot the wetter areas with a paper towel, which creates wonderful ink spots and helps the paper dry faster!)

(5) Note how the Distress Inks, when wet, create different tones of the same color.

(6) Lightly tap dry inked paper over remaining ink drops on Craft Sheet to build layers of color. Dry with Craft Tool.

(7) Repeat until desired look is achieved.

(8) Cut paper into squares to fit the bracelet blanks.

(9) Adhere to bracelet blank with a little Sepia Accents. Let dry.

(10) Cover the surface of each paper-filled link with Sepia Accents. Start flow on scrap paper to remove any bubbles at the top of the bottle nozzle. Outline paper-filled link with Sepia Accents and then fill in the remainder of the paper.

(11) Repeat for each link. Let dry. You now have a beautiful bracelet!
