today i wanna show you a fun technique using a fabulous tool that's perfect for
any stamper
what's that tool you might ask
ta-duh it's the stampin write marker
the stampin write marker is an easy way and inexpensive to add to your ink
collection
it's also the perfect way to get lots of different colors on your stamp let me
show you few tips with the marker
you can see the fat line and the skinny line that tells you what kind of tip is
underneath so no more guessing
the second tip is breathing now you might wonder why we're talking about
breathing in stamps but it's very important you can see i colored this
image maybe five minutes ago and i'm gonna finish it off with my crisp
cantaloupe
i've already colored the words
and in that time you could guess that ink would dry out a little bit
but if i breath on it just right
((sound of breathing))
did you hear that
watch what happens
the ink is reactivated
and we have a perfect image
the second the other two tool to use when you're using your markers
is tapping not already colored this image again but you can see where the
balloon is fat i want to add a little more dimension or pop there so i've grabbed a
darker green always artichoke
use the fat side and i'm just going to tap
right on my image doesn't really matter where but right around where i want to add
i'm gonna get a few more just just for fun
remember that tip breathing
let's see what happens
see how it kinda makes that pop just a little bit where i wanted it to
and finally you can use spritzing
when you stamp using an ink pad but if you use it after you color an image
it just gives it that little bit of that washed-out look so just color right on your stamp
and if this were a stamp where i got ink somewhere where i didn't want it want it
maybe the leaf of a flower i could use my blender pen to just wipe the ink right off
i'm going to spray my stamp
let's see what happens
you can see it looks a little washed-out which is cool for any project that you
want to do that now finally i want to show you
just this card you can see how beautiful that markered image is
every little piece of this cake is the color i that i wanted to be in it looks
differently than when i would stamp it on an ink pad
so you can see how markers are fun simple way to make this cake look
fabulous without doing anything else
get out your markers
and see what possibilities you have
