Don't you love saying the word smoosh ? But today Smoosh is a background technique we will be doing today ..
The supplies you will need are :
Markers ( I am using Green Galore & Tempting Turq.)
1 Plastic Page protector ( any office supply or wal- mart ) you know the ones that are clear and you insert into a notebook ?
a spray bottle with water
Brayer
(2) Glossy card stock pieces Mine are cut at 3 3/4 " X 5"
Grab a piece of paper towel or cotton ball while your at it, and also a baby wipe for easy clean up
My Green galore card stock measures : 4" X 5 1/4"
Tempting turq card stock measures 4 1/4" X 11" scored at 5 1/2"
I am used the Flight of the Butterfly stamp set . with the 2 way glue pen and dazzling diamonds ( Of course)
Updated added Sunday 8-31-08 7:15am
After you smoosh your Glossy Card stock let dry and then stamp your images right on top of your smoosh area/glossy card stock with Black ink / Staz On, then add your 2 way glue pen to your Butterflies then sprinkle dazzling diamonds on top of the 2 way glue
