It’s Elvis release day at Cornish Heritage Farms, the only rubber stamp manufacturer with licensing agreements with Elvis Presley Enterprises! How fun is that?
This is Jumpsuit Silhouette Elvis. I love this one! This thing shimmers and shines, IRL. The background is Cryogen (Shimmery) White cardstock stamped with the Dotted Diamond Backgrounder in Pearl Adirondack Paint. When the paint dried (in like 3-4 minutes) I went over that with a Slate (deep grey) Adirondack ink. The paint resists the dye, and you are left with sparkly, pearl paint and shimmery grey cardstock.
For the main image panel, I wanted Elvis to really shine. I stamped him in Pitch Black Adirondack and then, using my stamp a ma jig, I stamped him again, right over the top of the black ink with very fine glitter. It worked beautifully, even the mic cord and fringes on his jumpsuit have a fine, fine glitter line. The silver shimmery ribbon is May Arts from one of TexasJodyLynn’s awesome ribbon shares!

Hey Lori-
These are fantabulous!!! What product did you use when you said you “stamped” him again with very fine glitter?
Bravo.
