Greetings friends. I was inspired to try a new technique that I would like to share with you. I learned about it on Splitcoaststampers. If you haven't been there before, it is an online stamping community where people share ideas. I found inspiration in their Drywall Tape Texture technique. If you would like to see a video of the technique, you can view it on YouTube here.

To try this technique, you are going to need some self-adhesive mesh drywall tape. I bought mine at Walmart. In their demo, the tape they used had a square pattern in the mesh. Mine was more of a rectangle pattern. 

Stamp your image onto watercolor paper with black ink and let the ink dry. Cover the area you want with strips of the drywall tape. It is self-adhesive, so it is really easy to place where you want without it shifting or moving. I used two strips of tape because I wanted to cover more of the flower.
