Waxy Technique


Welcome to Technique Tuesday!

By Judy Cantrell



This is a Waxy Technique

I’ve seen this technique with several names across the Internet

Supplies:






Tim Holtz Set #001

Tim Holtz Set#013
Iron

Scrap of copy paper

Wax paper

Folded card stock

Embellishments


 [OWSE has all of these supplies]



Instructions:

1. Cut wax paper a bit larger than embossing folder. Insert into embossing folder.

2. Run through die cutting machine. If you are using a Cuttlebug the sandwich is:
A plate
B Plate
Embossing folder with wax paper inside
B Plate

3. Stamp an image on white glossy card stock with black permanent ink.
4. Place embossed wax paper over glossy card stock then a piece of scrap paper over that.

5. Heat dry iron on high. Press iron firmly over the scrap paper, wax paper and card stock for a few minutes. Remove the scrap paper and wax paper.  
6. Ink brayer and then roll over glossy card stock to cover.

7. Finish and embellish card.
