Glossy glossy....
I'm in a rut with my glossy paper. I only do crayon resist on it.
Soooo, what do you do with your glossy paper?? What fab things am I missing out on??

Love the brayer and Kaleidacolor (Spectrum for you SU demos) pads. I did a bunch of wolves for deelite. I'll check out that attachment Cindy gave us. I haven't tried polished stone or faux linen, but I want to.

I do the polished stone, I have accidentally done the shaving cream on glossy and it still turned out, wax paper resist is my favorite.

dude, polished stone is way too much of a PITA for mamak and I! Faux linen rocks though!

I did soot stamping with my clubs last month. We have it at my house, which made me feel better about letting them play with an open flame. They LOVED it! I used the church stamp from Silent Night on it, and it looked like an old tin-type photo. Very cool!

I was going to ask how to do faux linen, but then I found this other thread. It has a couple of links to different techniques! One is just faux techniques and the other is a 106 page Word document that has sooooo many techniques.
Here is the thread and the links are at post #18 and 19. Have fun playing!
