Another great use for the stamparatus tool! Special thanks and acknowledgement to Cheri’s Cards for the inspiration for these “tie dye technique” cards!
Using one of the plates of the Stamparatus you have a nice sized plastic surface for this technique.
Remove one of the plates from the Stamparatus tool and cover the plate with any colors of ink you choose, (it is best to start light and go darker – which I did not do in the video!)
Fill a Stampin’ Spritzer with rubbing alcohol and spritz the inked surface of the stamparatus plate until the colors just start to touch.
Place a piece of Shimmery White cardstock onto the alcohol sprayed ink.
Remove and with the remaining ink use another sheet of Shimmery white until most of the ink is used . Allow to dry and stamp with memento Tuxedo Black ink a stamped image – here I used the flower outline image from the new Color and Contour Stamp set.
I die cut the images.
And these are some card samples using the Tie-dyed images!
This is a fun and easy technique! Enjoy and I hope it inspires you to go and create art one stamp at a time!
Happy Stampin’
