Layering different colours of inks on top of each other is not only loads of fun but also very effective. Combining different types of inks make for amazing effects and knowing how they will react will help you achieve the end results you crave time and again.
For this sample board I layered plain and metallic inks on top of each other for a striking shimmery effect. But knowing how is key…
-
Step 1
Use a sponge applicator and blend a pattern onto your cardstock using Memento LUXE ink in Morocco.
-
Step 2
Move the stencil pattern slightly off-set and stencil the design again this time using Memento LUXE Espresso Truffle.
-
Step 3
To make the somewhat light and boring colours pop add a layer of Brilliance ink with shimmer on top of both colours.
I used my ink pad directly to paper and light patted the ink onto the design. Once you remove your stencil you can clearly see how vibrant the copper metallic ink on top of the orange and brown looks. It truly makes a difference!
Make use of your metallic ink pads to create stunning effects on top of plain ink colours. This technique will never fail you!
