Vada’s Gesso Resist TutorialOctober 2006

When one of my stamping heroes sends me a technique, I sit up and pay attention! Design Team Member Vada Schutz offered this stunning technique -- I hope this tutorial does this artistic technique justice. Make sure you peek at Vada’s “to-die-for” artwork on the artwork pages!

Supplies: - Stamps for Collage - Black StazOn Ink - White Gesso - Wax Paper - Kaleidacolor, Spectrum or Rainbow Ink - Brayer - 2 or 3 Colors of Walnut EZ Tintz (or watered down dye inks) in colors complementary to the Rainbow Ink - Heat tool - Glossy Cardstock - Several Cosmetic Sponges

Step One: Stamp a collage in black StazOn over the glossy cardstock.

Step Two: Dry the ink with a heat tool.


Step Five: Dry the Gesso with a heat tool.

Step Six: Apply the lightest color of Walnut Ink Tintz to a cosmetic sponge.

Step Three: Tear off a small portion of wax paper and squirt a quarter-size drop of Gesso on it.

Step Four: Carefully wad the wax paper with the Gesso facing out. Dab and swipe the Gesso sparingly over the cardstock and images.

Step Seven: Sponge sparingly over the cardstock, leaving plenty of white space.

Step Eight: Repeat; sponge on additional colors of tintz as desired. Leave plenty of white space.


Step Eleven: Allow ink to dry and finish project as desired.

Step Nine: Dry inks with the heat tool.

Step Ten: Load brayer with complementary rainbow ink. Brayer ink over the tintz and cardstock. The rainbow ink will blend the ink tintz while the gesso will resist the ink.
