Ink and Mixer Tutorial

Good morning Clear Scraps fans!  Guiseppa here with a fast and easy tutorial using the new Mixers.  I chose the Wire Mixer...it is my favorite one.

Gather your supplies...your Mixer, ink and a shape that you either punched or cut out from a die cut or die cutting machine.  I chose this four leaf clover since we are in the month of March:)

 

Set your cut out shape on top of your  Mixer.  I want you to know that I left the plastic coating on my Wire Mixer. That way, when I am ready, I can use the Wire Mixer itself as an embellishment on another project.

 

Add a second piece of paper to the back of the mixer.

 

Go in and ink and dab all around and in the mixer until you get your desired color.

 

Here is what it looked like when it was done.

 

Lay your shape back on top of the inked image you just created.  Make sure you line it all up correctly and then trace around it with a pen that is the same color as your ink.

 

Here is what it looks like.

 

Then finally cut around it.  Now, you have your shape to embellish your project.

Thanks for stopping in!  The projects this month have been fabulous and next month, we add more fabulous designers to our team, so make sure you are watching for that!
