A Happy {Rainbow} Hello

 

 

Yesterday Jennifer posted a video showing a

Wood Veneer Letterpress technique I just had to try!

I'm not a huge fan of pigment inks, which are necessary for this technique, but I did have one pad that I didn't get rid of. I tried using distress inks and distress paints.  Both worked, but Jennifer's right, pigment works best.

 

In her video, Jennifer shares her sandwich.

I thought I'd share mine since we use a different machine.

I use a Cuttlebug and my sandwich is as follows:

 

From Bottom to Top

A Plate

2 Tan Mats

Cardstock

Wood Veneer {Ink  Side Down}

C Plate

 

Worked like a charm!

I used Inktense pencils to create my rainbow and then used it to create the strip down the side and also to die cut the Hand Lettered Hello.
