SU053 Versamark Resist

Versamark Resist Technique

Versmark is a clear ink that is usually used to emboss images or create a watermark background.


Cut Glossy card stock to the size you want.
Ink your stamp with the Versamark pad and stamp on glossy card stock.
Run your brayer in ink of your choice, and brayer over the Versamark image.  You can sponge ink over top instead of using a brayer if you want. The stamped images will resist the ink. Keeping the card simple lets the technique stand out!

The more you brayer or sponge, the darker it goes and the more the images pop.  Also remember that the darker the color you use the less likely the Versamark is going to resist.
I hope you will try this technique!  This is sometimes called Ghosting.
