Did you notice how sparkly my shoe was?  I colored the shoe with some ink & a Wink of Stella!  Just look how I did it!

How did I color the shoe?

• I just used one of my Clear Blocks, pressed it into my ink pad & then picked the wet ink off of the Clear Block with my Wink of Stella. 

NOTES:  

• DO NOT pick the color up directly from your ink pad.  
• DO NOT reink the Clear Block into the ink pad....rinse the Clear Block first!  
• IMPORTANT- you do not want to get the sparkle from the Wink of Stella on your ink pad.

Check out this pretty new Whisper White Ribbon!  I stamped directly onto it with the cluster of dots stamp in this set!  Neat huh!  

You can do SO MUCH with this new ribbon!!  It ties so easy & is soft & very pliable.
