if youwant a stronger colour just repeat the above process dont be tempted to put a whole load more ink on, you wil just end up in one big mess……..

Your card is important i use matt card but it still needs to be very smooth …no texture almost silky.

Use a one way movement…..not backwards and forwards.

Its really that simple…. if anyone has any other questions please email me,and i will do what i can to help,

in the mean time i hope this helps some frustated people out there……
