Hello Stampers,
Lets learn how to make the Patina technique into a white piece of cardstock. Yes it is hard to believe that this is done on whisper white thick card stock. It is so vintage and so beautiful.
This is NOT a new technique. I did a video way back in November 2012 but since then most of the ink colors I use then are retired so I revamp this technique with new colors. Also the embossing folder is a new one the Tin Tile so perfect for this look.
I have all the detail for you including a video that can be found on my YouTube Chanel.
My best tip
My best tip for this technique is after you are done with all the sponging is to heat set the ink before you apply the versamark. I explain all in the video but this is very important for the ink to dry so the embossing powder will not stick to all the surface of the cardstock.
