Here is my tutorial for the Reinker Spread. I found this on Splitcoast Stampers and was originally shared at the Stampin' Up Regional Conference.
You will need the following items: SU Shimmery White Cardstock Versamark or SU Craft Ink Line Image Stamp Embossing Powder Heat Tool & Powder Pal Water in a Spray Bottle Reinkers Aqua Painter
Step 1: Stamp an image on Shimmery White Cardstock using Versamark or Craft Ink. It is important to use Shimmery White or a coated cardstock.
Step 2: Cover the image with embossing powder.
Step 3: Heat emboss image.
Step 4: Spray the cardstock with water until water pools on the cardstock.
Step 5: Then using an aqua painter pull color from a reinker and paint part of the image.
Step 6: Continue adding more colors, until image is completely colored.
Step 7: Allow image to dry completely.
Step 8: Cut out the image.
Step 9: Complete your card.
