The card above was made with Marina Mist ink, but look how beautiful this technique is with Perfect Plum ink!
STEP BY STEP HOW TO CREATE WAXED PAPER RESIST
(see video above)
STEP 1:
cut waxed paper to about 4-1/2"x6" (slightly larger than your card front)
STEP 2:
Place waxed paper in an embossing folder, and run through the Big Shot
STEP 3:
on your ironing board, place a piece of copy paper/computer paper, then place a piece of Glossy Cardstock, glossy side up, place the embossed waxed paper on top, then another piece of copy paper over that. Iron on COTTON SETTING (NO STEAM) for a few seconds.. do not rub (see video)
STEP 4:
ink your brayer with desired color, then roll onto glossy cardstock that has the waxed paper design on it
STEP 5:
use a kleenex or paper towel and rub off any excess ink
DONE! use your background on your card or project
Try two colors!
Try other embossing folders!
Have fun!
** I am sad that the Glossy White cardstock has sold out, however, I'm HAPPY TO REPORT that you can do this technique with Shimmery White cardstock (#101910) and with Whisper White Cardstock (#100730) both from Stampin' Up!
EDITED TO ADD 5/22/13: several people have emailed me to say that you can also try Photo Paper (from office supply stores) if you are out of glossy paper… thank you everyone!

AWESOME technique! Going to give this a try. Good thing I have LOTS of the glossy cardstock. Your cards are beautiful!
This is fabulous…will try it today! Thank you Patty…always enjoy your videos!
Nice tutorial! Thank you!
Great video as always. Thanks for the stamp coloring tip also. Edna
GREAT video and step by step instructions! Thanks for sharing this, AND for the two tone coloring with the stamp. I LOVE that tip of stamping in the ink, then adding the 2nd color with the marker – brilliant!
Wow! Such a stunning technique! Your cards are beautiful! Thanks so much for sharing this idea and the tip with the markers!
What a great technique, can’t wait to try it. TFS Kay
I love this technique. At first I had a few lines from the brayer, but they worked themselves out and it is so pretty. I used
Elegant Eggplant. Thanks for the demo
