A Technique for Distinktive

Distinktive stamps have all the depth built into the image. There are a few techniques and tips and tricks for getting the best images from them. In today’s live I’ve pulled a favorite stamp from by BOGO of retired products to demonstrate one technique for working with distinktive stamps.

Not Too Much Ink

Distinktive stamps work best with ink pads that aren’t super inky. You can push ink to the sides of your pad with a spoon or bone folder if you get a muddy image when stamped.

Have You Tried Blending the Image?

The photos I’ve shared have only one difference. I used a water painter to blend the stamped artichokes for one of the cards. I love the soft look this technique added to the distinktive image. Do you have a preference? If you missed the live broadcast you can catch the replay and learn how to blend the image and compare the two techniques.
