Rubber Stamping and Markers ... 101
About a year ago I invested in Tombow Markers ... here are a few tips and techniques for using markers
01. Water Color Paper ... you can find this at any craft or office supply store .. This allows for the color gradients
02. Stamp your image with a Permanent Ink and heat set or ... I use clear embossing powder
03. Choose your color palette
04. Have your blender pen in hand ....
05. ALWAYS ... did I say ALWAYS start coloring from the outside line and blend to the inner part of the image ... this is what gives you added depth and effects ... Play, play, and play some more ...
I finished the stamp .. Cut it and added a bird and flower ... and waiting for the crackle to dry ....no idea what I am going to do with it besides add it to my embellishment stash ... but this was a relaxing release of stress creative moment ....
More Tips soon ... pull out the markers and start getting creative !
