I had the idea today at work to try this with the bouncing brayer technique. Instead of using a multi-color ink pad, I alternated between Real Red & Brilliant Blue. I thought it turned out fairly well. I am a staunch supporter of our Military & I am giving Veteran's $5 haircuts to honor our Veterans for Veteran's Day. I did it last year & it went over very well.

This is a great idea--both the card and the $5 haircuts for vets. I have 3 brothers in the military, and my dad, uncle, and BIL are all vets. I really like the fireworks sort of effect of the bouncing brayer. Nice job!

Yes, that alternate bayering turned out well. That is just such a super stamp, depicting a soldier. Thanks for doing your part in supporting the troops.
