So very excited to have the Tim Holtz Distress Mini Ink Pads available! These ink pads pack the same punch as the standard size but uses a smaller area for storage!
Distress inks are so very versatile as they can be used for water coloring, stamping, layering colors, and I could go on and on!
Today’s cards will show two ways that I use the ink pads.
The first card I used the inks as a watercolor for the flowers as well as using the pads as a background wash….This was a fun way to bring Spring into my mind while it’s in the 30’s outside!! Remember when using water, you want to use a water-resistant ink such as Staz-on.
On the second card I enjoyed using the vibrant colors that these inks bring! This card is such a fun throw back using a stamp set I received as a bonus from a magazine I purchased over the weekend. I love old Volkswagon Bug Busses and although I have never seen a two-toned paint job, I can use my “artistic license” with these inks!
These ink sets are available at https://paperpelicancrafts.com/collections/ink-markers
and remember FREE SHIPPING on purchases over $20!
This is a GREAT way to get an assortment of colors (each set comes with 4 ink pads) without taking up a ton of room! The ink pads are 1”x1” and are stackable! Perfect for the beginner wanting to try distress inks or anyone with a smaller crafting area!
