Today's Gel Press™ blog hop theme was "masculine" themed - so I thought it was
the perfect time to create something with this "Fish Bones" stamp from JudiKins!

Materials:
DecoArt® Americana® Multi-Surface Satin™ - Woodland Green, Dolphin, Night Sky, Cocoa Bean
JudiKins™ KITE Stencil - High Anxiety
JudiKins™ Fish Bones rubber stamp
Beacon® Zip Dry™ Adhesive
Clearsnap® ColorBox® Crafter’s™ Ink - Deep Woods by Ann Butler
Dimensional foam dots
White paper
Dark blue, dark green, grey card stock
Rubber brayer, paper trimmer, scissors
Instructions:
I began my mono-printing for this project on a piece of pre-printed paper - created with two shades of light blue and white paint from an earlier project. You could use plain white paper, or first prepare a paper this color before proceeding to the next steps.
Place drops of all 4 shades of Multi-Surface Satin™ paints onto 6 x 6” Gel Press™ plate.
Brayer lightly to blend colors.
Use un-inked Fish Bones stamp to stamp into paint on plate, cleaning between impressions by stamping on to a piece of white paper (save at least one "clean" stamped image for your focal image).
Place High Anxiety stencil over plate.
Place pre-printed light blue (or white) paper over plate and press evenly to transfer design to paper. Pull print and let dry.
Lift stencil and pull second print on plain paper for later use.
Ink Fish Bones stamp with Deep Woods ink. Stamp over printed paper randomly, re-inking between stamping.
Trim to desired size.
Use Zip Dry™ to mount onto dark blue card stock and trim to create mat about 1/8” larger on all sides than background paper.
Cut card from grey card stock. Mount patterned paper with mat centered on card front.
Use scissors to trim around one of the stamped Fish Bones images. Cut dark green card stock mat to fit beneath fish. Use dimensional foam dots to mount fish to green mat. Use Zip Dry to mount centered on card front over patterned paper.
