I often have projects which do not work! Sometimes I just throw them in the bin or like you I try to make it better. I have tried using grey ink for background stamping to fade colours which are too bright .Also i have die cut shapes or foliage and added those to blend into the background and blended with inks. What is in my head does not seem to get on to the page very often. Sometimes taking a photo gives a different view

I just bought one of these dies and what I can't figure out is the binding/spine.
@LouiseSimsPapercrafter
@LouiseSimsPapercrafter 2 ай бұрын
The spine can be made in different ways, but the main idea for this die set was to thread ribbon/twine through the holes - 2 long thin dies. In this video, I made a traditional spine without using the dies.

Metallic paints make wonderful prints or use to lift your final print. Makes a fabulous alternative to white paint. Stamping on your gel plate is another fab way to add layers and looks so cool when you pull the print too x

Lin, gel prints are very easy to use as no print is ever wrong. If not happy, print or stamp over it and it changes the way it looks xxx
