7. Inking
As an artist, Erikia Ghumm often turns to inks and dyes to create her own papers and tags.
TIPS
• Don a mask. To create the flames on her layout, Erikia sprayed dye over a flame mask. Download step-by-step instructions for this technique here.
• Blot blemishes. Erikia applied several light layers of the dye to avoid saturating the paper, which can ruin the masked shape. If a puddle does form, simply blot it up quickly.
