Comments: This spectacular sponging technique adds a soft touch
to your layouts. Use two colors of ink. Ink the leaf in the darkest
color first. With a round sponge use the second ink color and
sponge the color directly onto the stamp around the edges. Stamp
image onto cardstock.

This technique will bring your layouts alive. Begin by forming
square blocks with post-it notes. Using a round sponge lightly
add one color of ink with the sponge to the side of the post-it
note. Repeat the process around each side of the notes using
a different color of ink each time. Continue with this technique
covering the entire page.
