Description:

Crumple a piece of wax paper slightly larger than your cardstock then open it up & sandwich between 2 pieces of glossy white cardstock. The glossy sides will be facing each other. Use a warm iron on non steam setting to iron your sandwich. After it is cool, apply ink to glossy cardstock with brayer, sponge or dauber, then wipe with paper towel to remove excess ink. I usually use enough cardstock to make 4 backgrounds. Finish the ATC anyway you like making sure some of your beautiful background shows. Add a sturdy backing to your 2 1/2 x 3 1/2 ATC & a sturdy backing with your Swap bot info. Place in a protective sleeve.

It has been a while since I've used this technique. It is a fun one and no two come out the same. Great swap idea.

Thank you. It has been a long time since I have done this technique & I always like the look.

Do we just sent the background.... or do we make an ATC out of it with embellishments???

I added the sentence that we need to finish the ATC before we send it. Thank you for that question.
