You did such a great job of explaining the technique!
Thanks for taking the time to do it.

Wow! They are beautiful. I want to try that.

this looks fun - and a good way to use some of that enormous amount of ephemera stuff I've collected over the years!

Kathryn.

The waxed paper provides 2 purposes. One, it really gives you a good embossed impression. I don't know why, but it does make a difference; the other is it provides a resist, especially if you don't completely cover the base cardstock. The mod podge provides that too, but you may sand down to the waxed paper layer at some point and that will continue to resist the ink layers.

Thankyou for explaining about the waxed paper, Rachelle. I know I've got a few sheets of it somewhere!

Fabulous instructions, Rachelle. Thanks for posting them - I'm definitely going to try this.

Thanks everyone! Enjoy playing with the technique and be sure to post pics of what you do. And definitely add to the tutorial if you come up with a tip or addition to the technique.
