Smoosh Technique!








An early Happy Mother's Day to all of you wonderful mothers out there!!!







Supplies: Reinkers (in this card I used Baja Bl, Pacific Pt, and Kiwi Kiss, with matching cardstock and ribbon, black ink, glossy white cardstock, brayer, Page protector, water bottle











1. First, cut your page protector so that it can open like a book. (these are protectors that we use in our scrapbooks)



2. Dribble some reinkers onto your protector and spray with water.



3. Place your glossy cardstock on top of the ink and water, closing the protector over it.





4. Brayer over and remove cardstock, you will get a unique background design to use on your card. A Note: You can place a new piece of cardstock into the protector and brayer again there will still be enough ink to give you a background although it will be a bit lighter. You can repeat this a few times, each time with a lighter effect before needing to wipe you protector down and beginning again!


5. After allowing time to dry, stamp your image in black over your background. Adhere, tie on a ribbon and stamp your saying in black.


Enjoy!!!!
