How To Guide - Step 1

Trim a piece of white card to 5 x 5". Stamp the image from Pit Stop in Black Soot. DO NOT MOVE THE STAMP AND CARD. Spray the stamped image lightly with water, allowing the ink to "bleed". Once you are happy with the result, mop up the excess water/ink with a paper towel and blast dry with a heat tool. This is referred to as the "bleeding" technique. 

How To Guide - Step 2

Re-ink the stamp with your Midnight ink pad and stamp back over the image, giving back definition to your artwork. Dry with heat tool and pop aside. 

How To Guide - Step 3

Trim a sheet from the Charcoal Paper pad, to 5 x 5 3/4". 

How To Guide - Step 4

Adhere your artwork on to the black paper, flush with the sides and an equal depth of paper visible top and bottom, as seen here. 

How To Guide - Step 5

Adhere to your card black, again flush with sides and equal gap top and bottom. 

How To Guide - Step 6

Stamp your sentiment in Midnight, on to a piece of white card and trim to shape. Adhere on to black card and trim to create a "mat".
