Shrink Plastic Fail

Sharing a couple of big fails here in an attempt to save you some time.

Fail #1: top left: Printed with inkjet shrink plastic, let it dry for over 3 weeks, put clear water based Varathane on it - bled ink everywhere - FAIL!

Fail #2: Top right: stamped with Stazon, colored with Copic (make sure to never let the copic touch the stazon ink), let it dry well, covered with clear embossing powder and heat gun, bubbles everywhere, shrink got warped and there was no way to get it leveled without touching the goey embossing powder - FAIL!  other people had success with this - NOT ME!

Fail #3: Bottom left: Stazon ink on regular white shrink plastic, let it set for two days, put clear embossing powder on it with heat gun, bled everywhere and warped my shrink, this one looked really good before I tried to put clear embossing powder on it. FAIL!
