Instructions:
1. Ink stamp with silver pigment ink, and stamp on white cardstock.
2. Add embossing powder to the wet ink. (Note: I like to use a container large
enough to place a card in to hold the embossing powder. That way you don’t have
to get the excess powder back in the little jar. ) Heat emboss.
3. Use the DTP (direct to paper) technique and cover the entire piece of
embossed cardstock with the silver pigment
Step 1 ink.

4. Rub the ink into the cardstock, using tip of your finger. If you want to keep
your hands clean use a rubber glove.
5. Squeeze a few drops of each reinker color into three paint wells.
6. With your finger smooth out the first ink color on the side of the paint well
until it is fairly thin.
7. Buff the image with your finger (or gloved finger) so the dye sticks to the
recessed areas of the cardstock.
8. Repeat step 6 and 7 with the other two ink colors
Step 3

9. Heat again with the heat tool to set the ink.
10. Use the soft tissue to buff the image.
11. Mount and layer the completed piece as desired.
