Fun Techniques...

Batik Technique

Stamp your image with a tinted embossing ink onto a piece of white Mulberry Paper. Bold lined or solid stamps work best. Emboss with clear powder. Place paper on a waterproof surface and lightly mist with water. The wetter the mulberry the softer your colors will be. Using a wet paintbrush, paint the whole piece of Mulberry Paper with 2-3 colors of re-inker. Let dry. Hold your heat gun at a distance of about 12 inches for best results. Iron the Mulberry Paper with an iron on medium-high setting, between sheets of plain copy paper, to remove the clear embossing powder. Peel quickly. Adhere the Mulberry Paper to cardstock using Bonding Memories® glue. Roll with a rubber brayer to remove wrinkles.
