Everyone wants the instructions emailed. There are too many and the files would be large. What I can tell you is that I am not the talented one. The ladies on SCS are. I just organized and made the technique list.
First I went to the resources page and listed the tutorials from there.
Next, I typed Faux in the forums search box and went from there. Once I found the technique name I would try that too. When I found the instructions I looked in the gallery and cased a picture from there.
If there is a particular technique you want emailed let me know and I'll be glad to send what I found. I will try later to compose a file with just the instructions and no pictures. When I get this completed I will post it here.

Stamp image with Versamark on medium to dark cs. Use stamp positioner to line up image just a skosh (thats not very much) above and to the left or right. Stamp image there with white dye ink. This is absolutely gorgeous, I 've done it! People that looked at my samples had to touch it. I saw it here and I apologize profusely but I can't find it again and I can't remember who to give credit where credit is due. I am so sorry.
Ruth~ Do you mean white craft ink, or pigment ink? I'm not familiar with white dye ink.
Here is another way to make faux leather without masking tape.
Punch a 1 3/8 square of More Mustard CS
Soak it in water for a few minutes
Crumple it up
Wring it out
Use a negative image stamp like the ornate looking one from Mostly Flowers
Without using ink, just the stamp, press it HARD into the wet CS
Stand on it if you have to
Let it air dry or blast it with your heat gun until it's totally dry
Sponge on More Mustard ink...keep sponging.
My friend Jennifer Jones taught me how to do this the other day.
So sorry it took me so long to get back to you. I believe Stampin Ups 'Classic' inkpads are what I call a dye ink pad. It dries quickly. The 'Craft' inkpads are what I call pigment inks because they don't dry as fast and can be embossed. I use Memories white dye ink pad for my best results.
I am looking for the faux denim technique but unable to find any directions. The cards done with this technique are gorgeous, but alas no instructions to be found.
I was just starting to put together a resource for a class and found this thread ---THANK YOU so much for sharing your resources .... I really appreciate this community everyday... but right now I appreciate you. Thank you so much for your hard work lin.
I have an easy one. Does anyone know how to do the faux photo corners? I made some a long time ago and wanted to duplicate them for our upcoming stamp camp and for the life of me I can't remember how. I know it's very easy, but I'm getting old and forgetful. HELP!!!

I read in a magazine about Faux Demensionals. You get white fun foam and your xyron sticker maker machine and run it on both sides then you get your hole puncher and create 3-d sticky dots for cheap!
Faux clay [embossed craft foam] technique...found it on the web but not under Splitcoaststamper. I made a card using this technique and it's really easy. I hope it is OK to link outside of this site:
Hey camandtysmom - I like the faux clay technique. I hope I didn't imply that "samples" of the technique weren't on Splitcoast because there are some. Happy hunting...there is a simple, white Calla Lilly that I like - Faux Clay Wedding by countrybeamer at Splitcoaststampers

Hi Lin,
I realize that this request is a few years late, but I was wondering if you still had these techniques so that you could email them to me? I have only been stamping for one year, but love it and enjoy splitcoaststampers.
Thanks,
Lorie Betz
