'Sizzix Ink-It's'-Tutorial and Giveaway

Hello SIZZIX INK IT'S!!
Take a look at these Brand New Letter Press Die's
Scrapbookers Paradise on line STORE
regular $7.50 on for $5.99
I picked 'Plate Music Notes' to work  play with
First I tried several inks and used scraps of paper
to see how they went through my Cuttlebug
These plates are a lovely and thick one piece die

I was able to use it to imprint on molding paste as you can see by my last example on this photo.
They create a really deep pattern.
If I were to do that again, I would let the paste dry
a little longer so it doesn't lift the top layer off the paper.

For my project I used the emboss sample which is first on this sheet

The Sizzix Letter Press and carefully cut the top off of
 an empty American Craft Ribbon Spool

For the embossing, I ran it through the Cuttlebug

After much experimenting the sandwich that worked for me
was:
'A' plate
Letter Press Die preinked with watermark
Paper Strip
Felt spacer
'B' plate
Run it through the machine, then emboss with your
choice of embossing powder

A sprinkle of G45 and Kaiser Paper
strung though with Canvas Corp twine
trimmed up with Prima Bulk Ribbon
