Additional Instructions Needed:

They're great and are referenced often on PolyShrink Project pages. You need 'em! Don't have 'em?

 Method:
Sand Black PolyShrink™ and then cut to 4 1/4" square for the back layer, and 3 3/8" for the top layer. A paper cutter is great for cutting if you have one, or mark with a graphite pencil and use scissors instead. Corners can be rounded with a corner rounder, or with scissors.

Apply Colorbox Crafter's Ink directly off the pad to both the top and bottom layers. The direct method of applying the ink is a lot of fun. Experiment with using the entire pad, the edge or just the corners. The effect will change depending on angle, pressure and how recently the pad has been reinked.

Please follow the PolyShrink General Instructions for baking and for the Intaglio Technique. The General instruction also give details on how to size PolyShrink to make this project using any stamp or textured object.

If your finished piece needs a bit more contrast, or you'd like to add a little glow, highlight with Treasure Gold™ or Rub N Buff™. Also try Craf-T Rub-ons™ alone or in combination with Pearl Ex. Pat gently onto your piece rather than rubbing, and make sure to apply a coat of sealer.
