BA Inspiration - Hello Ink Techniques

Hi, it's Jane here today and I'd like to wish you all a Happy New Year!

Today I'm using just one stamp - Big & Bold Hello - and three different ways to ink it up. 

Card 1 - ink around the edge. First use a pale colour to ink up the stamp, then bounce a darker colour around the edges. 

Card 2 - oxides inks on an acrylic block

Add a different colour of ink to each quarter of an acrylic block. Give it a very light spritz with water and then use it to ink up the stamp before stamping onto card. 

Card 3 - a baby wipe ink pad.

Place a folded baby wipe onto an acrylic block and then using re-inkers drop three colours onto it.  The moisture from the wipe will allow the colours to mix - I used pink, yellow and blue.

Once the inks were dry I used the same card design to finish off each stamping. I chose card colours to reflect the inks.

Thanks so much for looking today. If you give any of these techniques a try please share on social media using #unikoltd.

Stay safe and keep crafting!
