Mono-Printing with The Craft Mat and Fireworks Spray
Ever wanted to learn how to make mono-prints? Learn how to get creative with this fun technique using the IMAGINE Crafts Craft Mat instead of a Gelli Plate.
-
Create an A2 card base from Linen Cardstock and cut a mat 4x5.5".
-
Splatter cardstock with Fireworks! Craft Spray. Tip: Use a larger piece than you'll need, to allow for trimming and straightening.
-
Apply Electric Yellow and Pistachio inks directly to the IMAGINE Crafts Craft Mat.
-
Stamp an image into the ink.
-
Lay the cardstock down onto the craft mat. Gently press to absorb all the ink.
-
Coat the inked area with Clear Embossing Powder and heat to melt.
-
Trim your background piece and/or tear the edges and apply to card. Tip: Since most of the patterned mat won't be seen, use it to die cut letters to match.
-
Embellish with ribbon, bling, and a sentiment.
