Distress oxide inks on glossy photo paper.

I had so much yesterday that I decided to step it up and do it again today. Only today i used some stencils or a stencil and some distress ink blending sponges with my distress oxide inks. The piece turned out absolutely amazing and I think I am more in love with this technique than any other. Every time renders a beautiful surprise and I encourage you to give it a try. 
Until next time, hugs and loves, from my crafting recliner, to your craft room. 
 

Amazing new technique using glossy photo paper and oxide inks

I don't think I stressed enough in the video that this technique only works on glossy photo paper and it is not the expected or usual outcome that you get with oxide inks on regular card stock. I just have a lot of photo paper that we never use and yesterday while still confined to my recliner and wheelchair, I decided to look for different ways to use all that photo paper and this video is just one cool thing I discovered. I made a few other discoveries that I will be share soon. Oh also, after I finished the video I played a little more and this is the outcome of that. I am in love with this piece and in person it is so shinny and cool looking. 
 
 

This first pic is what it looked like after I was done doing the background and stamping, the second pic is what appears after you wipe it off with a dry rag. I am just in love with this technique. Hope y'all enjoy and until next time, hugs and loves, from my craft recliner, to yours.
