Letterpress with Balzer Bits

It's super easy to create letterpress (i.e. a debossed colored image) with any of my Balzer Bits!  Watch the video for the how-to:

I used the same technique to create the focal images for these cards:

The sentiment was created with one of my hand carved stamps.

To create the pattern on the house, I stamped an image onto the House Bit and sprayed it with water just before I put it through the die cut machine!
