I love the work that our design team member is doing with Hot Off the Press. Here are her notes for this card featuring HOTP's Masculine Collage stamp:
CELEBRATE DAD

Select
the paper colors and alcohol inks you want to use in advance. For
this sample, the emphasis was on blues and greens
Cut
glossy paper to 5 1/2 x 4 1/4. *NOTE - Glossy paper
for printing pictures does NOT work
Working
on a craft sheet, select 2-3 colors of alcohol inks. Drop 2-3 drops of the selected colors on the
felt side of a wooden applicator. Place
dots next to each other. Using felt
inked applicator dab inks onto glossy paper covering entire surface.
Very
sparingly drop blending solution on inked paper to pull some color out. DO NOT HEAT SET. Let air dry.
Trim
inked paper to 5 x 3 3/4
Using
solvent ink pad (Black StazOn) stamp image and words over inked surface
Metallic
gel pens in silver and blue were used to accent image
