Stamping with Letterpress Ink Video | Julie Campbell
Tags:
I love using letterpress ink along with my stamps to make bold, saturated stamped images. A tiny bit of ink goes a long way & it’s so easy to create custom colors! Now that I’ve discovered a quick & easy way to clean my inked supplies, letterpress ink has become one of my favorite mediums.
In this video, I’ll show you how to make 3 tiny greeting cards using Project Life cards as the foundation. I’ll use stamps from the Bluegrass Farm kits & letterpress ink to dress them up.
Supplies: kits - Bluegrass Farm Card Kit (stamps) & Project Life Kit (stamps & journaling cards); ink - Letterpress Ink; craft dies - Fruit Punch; tools - brayer, corner rounder, acrylic block; font -American Typewriter; other: Goo Gone

Now you did it! I was so holding out on getting the LP ink set....I may just have to slip it into my Cart this month.
I really enjoyed your tutorial and the cards turned out so cute!

Also using regular cooking oil works too for oil based inks!

So cute! and many thanks for the cleanup discovery! I love the letterpress and inks, but cleanup has been a bear so I haven't used as much as I'd like...now I will!
