I picked up this Penny Black warbler this past weekend at a stamp convention in Milwaukee. I stamped it in versamark on white glossy card stock, and then brayered over it with Kaleidacolor desert heat ink. I wanted the rest of the card to have that same shine, so I did two pieces of polished stone using Adirondack alcohol inks. (Sorry, I don't remember which colors I used, because I played with a bunch of different combinations before I got what I liked.) On the green piece, if you look carefully, there is a very subtle swirl that I made using a Glimmer Screen from Tattered Angels (available at Jacksonbelle Embellishments. I just held the stencil down and sponged artichoke ink over it.
