I <3 wax paper



I've always loved wax paper, there's something about it that's always fascinated me. When I was little, my mother and I would take my crayon scraps and melt them between two sheets. I imagine everyone else has, too, but the pretty suncatchers we'd have at the end always impressed the hell out of me. Anyway, I always have it around, even if I'm not using it.

Tonight, I started wondering why I don't stamp on it. So I tried. I came up with a ton of crap and one good image. So what I've found is you can stamp on wax paper with Adirondack ink and a very fine stamp. Now I'll have to figure out just what I want to do with this knowledge.

But I have to say, I'm almost as impressed with these arches (Above the Mark) as I was with my most awesome suncatchers.
This (100 Proof Press) isn't quite as nice as the arches, but not as bad as the photo stamp try that is now in the trash.

I like it! It reminds me of a watermark. Isn't experimenting fun?? Thanks for your comment on my blog ;-)
