Start by stamping each image with Black dye ink and then trimming the card. Next use a sheet of acrylic or a sheet of glass will work too. I've even used a large acrylic block. I put down the ink in rows of colors.
Press the stamped card onto the inked surface. Lift up and then lay down again in a different direction. Keep repeating until you are satisfied with the results. You may also have to reink.
Card #1 uses Distress Inks-Spiced Marlmalade, Mustard Seed and Shabby Shutters.
Card #2 uses Distress Inks- Spun Sugar, Victorian Velvet and Milled Lavender.
Card #3 uses Distress Inks- Scattered Straw, Bundled Sage and Dried Marigold.
I hope you enjoyed this process. I really like to try out new ways to color. Be sure and check out the other designer's cards.

Hi Paula,
I was late in checking for the Saturday card, and there's a bonus ! I like the technique, it sure looks great ! The layers, punches, and embellishments really enhance the design !
