Tone on Tone Samples


We are continuing with samples put together for my library class of beginners.  Following are four samples of the Tone-on-Tone technique which used clear ink with two different backgrounds and a variety of images . . .





One of the methods I wanted to teach was how to more easily get good impressions with large background stamps.   I like to use a strip of removable tape along the inside edge of the card to keep it closed.  Then, after inking the stamp, I set it down on its back and bring the card to the rubber.  Holding firmly, I burnish repeatedly with my fingers and then lift the card carefully.  It comes out perfectly stamped every time!
