March Stamping Technique - Blends Marbling

Let's create a fun background, you can go soft or you can go hard!  Depending on the color that you choose you'll find that the colors don't always appear as you think they will. Using darker colors doesn't mean that your piece will have them prominently up front. Color with a "heavy" pigment tend to sink to the background when doing this technique. The lighter colors will always come to the top or front of the piece. Which explains while even when using Dark Night of Navy or Light Night of Navy, the blue comes out more with the Light Night of Navy.

You will need Stampin' Blend Markers, Glossy Cardstock, Ziploc bag, Rubbing Alcohol and Paper Towels. Taking a lighter color (for a soft look) or darker color (for a hard look), scribble some ink on the Ziploc Bag. Spritz lightly with Rubbing Alcohol and then "smooch" the bag all over the Glossy Cardstock, making sure the piece is totally covered. Wipe off access ink with paper towels.
