Creativity Keeper - Ink Catalog

Instructions

STEP 1:

Decide how to divide your inks. I chose to split mine by ink type, but you could also sort by color, manufacturer, etc.

STEP 2:

Write divider name onto tab stickers included in the Creativity Keeper. Apply to dividers and adhere decorative stickers as desired throughout the book.

STEP 3:

Write name on "This Book Belongs To" flap inside cover

STEP 4:

Use printed papers that come with the book or cut regular office paper down to size if you'd prefer to have an all white background for your ink catalog.

STEP 5:

Choose a stamp (I selected a rubber stamp with a mix of small detail and a larger coverage area) and stamp each ink pad in your collection. Stamp each color twice in order to show the effect of second generation stamping for each pad.

STEP 6:

Label each ink color.

STEP 7:

Be sure to thoroughly clean your stamp between each ink color.

STEP 8:

For specialty inks, get creative. I wanted to show off the most options possible in a small space with my spray inks. I used stickers included in the kit to mask off a few spots, and for each color I sprayed once lightly over the entire area. Then toward the right I sprayed a second time to show a darker coverage option.

STEP 9:

If desired, remove the "I Love Art" image from the front cover frame and replace with a custom design. I trimmed down a green page from a photo mat pad and slid it into the pocket. Then through the frame window I added dimensional felt stickers to spell "Ink".
