Step 1 of 10

Spray the Izink Butterscotch on to your craft or glass mat, and add a little water.

Smoosh the white card in to the ink. You can add more colour, to achieve your desired effect.

Step 2 of 10

Spray the Izink Underwater on to your mat, spritzing with water as before.

Pick up the ink on to the card. You can add more of both sprays, until you are happy with your background.

Dry off the ink naturally, or with your heat gun.

Step 3 of 10

Ink up the detailed stamp, from Live Your Story Lamination Stamp Collection, with the Onyx Black Versafine.

Stamp it centrally, on to your inky background.

Dry off the ink thoroughly, before proceeding to the next step.

Step 4 of 10

Using a paint brush and water, you need to paint the stamped image, with the water, giving the water a few seconds to work. Then "lift" the ink off, with a paper towel. This is referred to as "Faux Bleaching". Repeat this process until you are happy with the result.

Tip:Instead of water, you can use diluted bleach to "lift" out the ink. This technique gives a more bold and striking effect, whereas the water technique gives a more subtle result. The choice is yours.

Step 5 of 10

Spray the Izink Underwater on to your mat. Add a little water.

Use a paintbrush to "ground" the Rose, and paint a "Halo" around your image. The Halo can be as subtle, or as bold as you want. In my head I was going for a subtle Halo, but i actually ended up creating a bold, striking one, which is totally out of my comfort zone....but I love the effect!!

Add a few random splats of the Underwater spray, on to your artwork.
