Ranger Distress Stains – spun sugar, antique linen, peeled paint

Directions:

Shake the Ranger Ink  Distress Stain then press the dauber to the ribbon to release the ink inside the bottle. Next just slide the bottle across the May Arts ribbons to blend the ink on the ribbon. Allow to air dry or speed dry with heat tool.


For the Distress broken china ink pad just wet the ribbon first then drag the ink pad across the ribbon. Allow to air dry or speed dry with heat tool.

Mist with water to lighten color and create mottled effects. Apply layers of stain/ink for more saturated color.
