As you probably know, in my Stamp Clubs we do a new technique, plus use a design template. We did a technique with the reinkers this past month, and I called it "Magic Reinker"! How original is that?! This is very similar to the polished stone technique, but actually easier because it dries, unlike the metallic inks used with polished stone..JPG)
First you emboss a line image on glossy white card stock, using the VersaMark pad and white EP. Next you dip a cotton ball into alcohol, don't make it too wet, and then put 2 drops of two coordinating colors onto the cotton ball. In the above picture I used Rose Red and Regal Rose. You then dab the cotton ball all over the embossed image until the card stock is completely covered. Don't overdo it or the colors will get muddy. Then you heat it again. The color will evaporate off of the embossed image and it pops through. It's really cool!

On this card I used Brilliant Blue and Bashful Blue. The heart image is from the Always stamp set - isn't it beautiful? If you click on the pictures they will enlarge and you will be able to see in the upper left corner how I paper pierced a triangular design. Very easy to do with the template that comes with the mat pack. Paper piercing is a lot of fun, and adds just a bit of interest to the card.
