Option 2 - Blot |

|
Use a second piece of glossy card stock and lay
it face
down onto the first piece. Starting at a corner, slowly pull the two pieces apart creating a more blended pattern. For a wave-like pattern as shown in samples 2-1 and 2-2, pull the top piece off more quickly and repeat in sections as you work your way down the cardstock. Lay each piece face up and let dry. Spray with sealer. |
