I'm trying something out for a project I'm working on. I'm doing a Steampunk swap on Ravelry and want to create a Steamed Journal.
Supplies:
Moleskine Journal - blank pages - 8x5inches
acrylic paint
stamp of choice
sandpaper
1) rough up the cover of the journal to allow the paint to stick better and to give the journal a weathered look
2) mix your acrylic paint to the color you desire. use a foam brush to apply the paint to the stamp
3) apply the stamp to the journal. i positioned mine offset
4) let this dry
