Using Clearsnap Ink on Metal Dies Tutorial!

My first Clearsnap® post is on the blog! I have a quick tutorial on how to use ink with Sizzix metal dies. This is fun, easy and gives a really cool look. It breathes new life into using the dies you have, and it’s a great way to use up scraps too!

This technique is shown on Sizzix Thinlets dies, but works on all chemically etched dies such as Spellbinders and more!

I have a super quick and easy card to share today. CHA preparations are in full swing, the boys are home from school and craziness rules! It’s good to sit down and work out the crazies with crafting, isn’t it?

You and Me card by Beth Pingry

I die cut papers from the Basic Grey RSVP collection with A Jillian Vance Design dies. I stamped with the sentiment, then added Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L®’s 3D Foam Hearts. The back side of the pink die cuts have 3D Foam Squares, so there is some dimension to this card.

I pulled lace through the two Ribbon Banner die cuts. The 3D Foam Hearts are embellished with pink pigment powder for a nice shimmery look. I sanded the die cuts to show off the embossing better, these dies have great detail!
