Technique: Ghosting Stamping with Distress Inks

Since Tim Holtz’s Distress Ink react with water there are loads of different stamping techniques you can do with them. Here’s a fun one called ghosting, ink your background with Distress Ink, stamp your image in a darker color and then wet your stamp and slightly offset when you stamp again, this wet stamp will remove some of the ink giving a “ghost” shadow. Find out more about this technique over on Sharon’s Card Creations blog.
