Fossil Stone Technique

I have choosen to use very bold colours, but this technique is equally beautiful with soft colours. Colours: Hollyhock and Garden Green. Stamp Set is Kindred Spirits.
Fossil Stone Technique
This is what you need:
- glossy cardstock (cut to size)
- 2 ink pads
- rubber brayer
- acetate page protector
This is what you do:
- open your page protector
- ink up one side of the page protector with one ink pad (be liberal with the ink, cover the entire page)
- ink the opposite side of the protector with your other colour (remember that your colours appear light on the acetate)
- close your page protector and brayer over the entire page (this is combining the two colours of ink pads)
- then place your cardstock in the page protector and close, brayer over the entire page!
- the glossy paper should now have a stone look and is ready to adhere to your project of choice!
