This is one of my fav techniques and I haven't done it in a while. Thanks for reminding me with your trip down memory lane.
I know you are supposed to use mulberry paper, but I have every color except white. So I used plain old tissue paper. The cheap kind. Some has a coating on one side and that doesn't really work. I also used dye reinkers diluted in water and mixed in little spritzer bottles. So after I embossed the little images onto the white tissue paper, I put it in a shallow pan and spritzer with the different colors. Then put it between two sheets of blank paper and ironed. I used a large deckle scissors around the edge.
I stamped two of the main image and colored both with Twinkling H2O's. I cut out the rectangle, flower and leaf of one and attached on top of the other with foam tape. I attached it to the larger batik piece. I took a larger piece of the blue and cut the center out to make a frame and attached it all to a peach card front. (The peach that shows thru around the image is the card front, that's why it looks brighter.) TFL
