The last card Stamp Club members made used a technique with glossy card stock, a sponge brayer,  and water.  You get a different look every time, and a different look if you spritz the water on vs flick it on with your fingers.


This is the same card, but with a Basic Black card stock base.

TIP:
-Ink up the sponge brayer and roll over glossy card stock.  Then either spritz water on, or put a few drops of water on your fingers and flick onto the card stock.


It was a fun night of stamping at Diana's with Stamp Club!  The weather has felt like summer, but we know fall is right around the corner!
