Stampin' Up!

 Wacky Marbles Technique – even the name is fun!  This technique uses products that you probably already own.

See the step by step instructions below.

For this card, I used Whisper White shimmer paint first and then added a second coat of Rose Red re-inker. You can also use only re-inkers for a different look. Please let me know if you have any questions on this technique.

 

Wacky Marbles Technique

 

 

 Using a stamp storage case or a plastic container, add several marbles to the case.  

 

    

 

 

 

 

 

Wacky Marbles Technique 2

 

Attach a ¼ sheet of cardstock to the lid of storage case using adhesive.  Snap lid closed tightly.  Roll the marbles in the shimmer paint or ink until well coated.

 

  

Wacky Marbles Technique 3

 

 Flip the case upside down and roll the inked marbles onto your cardstock.  Use only one colour at a time to prevent muddy ink. You will get about 15 card fronts from 6 drops of ink.

 

 

 

 The samples below are Champagne Mist Shimmer Paint on
Regal Rose and Whisper White cardstock. Subtle but very pretty.
