I really enjoyed watching this tutorial, especially as your voice is so gentle and easy to hear.
I also like not needing a huge list of ingredients, as that can put me off trying a lot of ideas that I have seen from other presenters.
I have a fair amount of Lavinia stamps and stencils, but no clue how to get the best from them! As I need to make something a bit special for an upcoming 90th birthday card, I'll be watching this tutorial more than once over the next few days.
Thank you.

[@nanalovesyounana5489]

What a wonderful tutorial, thank you so much!! I was reading the comments below & the one from Clive really rang my bell. Meaning as we get a tad bit older we can forget some of the things we pick up from these great tutorials. Such as using the ink off that stencil to make another background. Thank you so much for taking your time in doing this for us. Many hugs!

[@suzihulbert486]

[@TheBiobarbara]

Suzi, these are super stunning cards and the technique is so easy. I’m going to have a play. That’s for the great drying tip too. 👍🏻👍🏻

[@suzihulbert486]

Thank you Barb❤

[@Smitharcher]

Hi, I love this. Do you wait for a while before stamping on to the oxide? I find I don't get a clear stamp image.

[@suzihulbert486]

Thank you, I always like to let my backgrounds dry before I stamp. And depending on how much ink you have on your background you may want to hold your stamp down longer to give the ink more time to sink in. Hope this helps❤

[@Smitharcher]

@Suzi Hulbert thank you so much. I did this tutorial and did leave the back ground for 20min and then stamped! It went so well...

[@donnapolentz6490]

Great technique! Can you use the same brush in Elements and Oxides?

[@suzihulbert486]

Thank you, and you really need brushes just for oxides. But you can use the same brushes for regular distress and elements ink. Oxides are a hybrid ink in a category of there own. Hope that helps ❤

Is there a specific paper that works best for
