Stamping Platform

Instructions:

1. Create a 5" x 7" card from Classic Blue Textured Cardstock. Set aside.
2. Use magnets and/or low-tack tape to secure a panel of Bristol Paper to the base of a stamping platform.
3. Position the one of the images from the LPC066 Cling Rubber Stamp Set facedown on the center of the image panel.
4. Press the platform's lid onto the back of the stamp and lift.
5. Use Tuxedo Black Memento Ink to ink the stamp and stamp. 
6. Re-ink and stamp again to attain a good dark impression.
7. Place a piece of repositionable sticker paper atop the image on the image panel and secure with magnets. 
8. Ink the stamp with Tuxedo Black Memento Ink and stamp the image onto the respositionable sticker paper. 
9. Remove the image panel from the stamping platform and place it onto a magnetic craft surface.
10. Heat set the Bristol Paper version to set the ink to avoid ink transfer to alcohol markers. 
11. Use Copic markers to color the image on the Bristol Paper panel.
12. Fussy-cut the image stamped onto repositionable sticker paper and place it atop its counterpart on the image panel as a mask. 
13. Brush Lost Shadow Distress Ink over the masked image panel to color the background. 
14. Place the circles portion on the Large Stencil PS317towards the top of the image pane and secure with magnets. Note that this stencil has a repeating pattern which makes it easy to cover larger areas with the stenciled pattern. 
15. Brush the Lost Shadow Distress Ink over the stencil's circles onto the image panel to create a tone-on-tone pattern.
16. Move the stencil to cover more of the image panel, taking care to line up the circles and diamonds. 
17. Continue to brush Lost Shadow Distress Ink over the stencil's circles onto the image panel. 
18. Remove and clean the stencil.
19. Place the border from the Large Stencil PS317 so that the base of the border (at the top of the stencil) is even with the bottom part of the stamped and colored image. 
20. Brush Lost Shadow Distress Ink over the stencil onto the image panel. 
21. Brush Tumbled Glass Distress Ink over the stencil to differentiate the border design from the stenciled circles. 
22. Keeping the stencil in place, brush Golden Glitz Delicata Ink over the stencil onto the image panel to add a sparkly touch.
23. Place low-tack tape or scrap paper horizontally onto the image panel, covering the top part. Brush Lost Shadow Distress Ink, then Tumbled Glass Distress Ink over the the stencil to further color the bottom part of the image panel.
24. Remove the stencil and heat set the panel. 
25. Spray the image panel with Gossamer Gold from the Moon Shadow Mists Spray Set to add some shimmer. 
26. Heat set the image panel. 
27. Remove the masks. 
28. Use the fourth largest die from the Crea Nest-Lies XXL Double Stitched Rectangle Die Se to cut the image panel. 
29. Use the Golden Glitz Delicata Ink to edge the image panel die-cut. 
30. Heat set the wet ink. C
31. Cut  Commodore Blue Cardstock 1/8" larger than the image panel die-cut and use it as a  mat. 
32. Cut Caribbean Sea Cardstock 1/4" larger than the image panel and use it to mat the matted image panel. Set the double-matted image panel aside.
33. Sponge or brush the light grey dye ink used earlier onto a strip of Bristol Paper.
34.  Heat set the ink. 
35. Place the inked strip onto the base of the stamping platform and secure with magnets and/or low-tack tape.
