This technique is so fun to do and makes for a beautiful background for cards. In the video, I used Night of Navy ink, but the card you'll see is Calypso Coral.
This
is such an easy card to make. Best of all, you can customize the
colors to match school colors. There's no stamp in the set for a guy,
however. I stamped this woman from the set. then I used my Basic Black Stampin' Write marker (#100082)
to color in her dress and extend the sleeves. The cap/hat is 1/2" x
1/2" and has a brad through it to hold the twine in place. Eezy Pezy!
