Glycerine and Ink Pads: Sponges and Sponge Brayer Techniques

Hi Stampers!

The card we made today was lots of fun and I can see many more versions with lots of different potential and ways to use the Gylcerine. I got mine on amazon and I will link it below but you may already have some, and I will also link a smaller bottle, as the one I got will last me three lifetimes!

I have seen several demos use these in many different cards and it really smoothes out the ink and makes blending of colors really simple and pretty. I added in some Shimmer paint at the end too. It gave a nice frosty sparkle to the “snow” we alluded too.

I think the version where I used the Sponge Brayer instead of Stampin’ Sponges was even better.

I will make some additional cards in the near future, and share them. I will also create an additional video if I stumble on any new ways to use it.
