Crafter's problems | Question time! What are your favourite stamping inks? What do you consider the essentials and, do you have specific uses for specific inks?⠀
⠀
I went through my stash of stamping inks recently, and even though I do not think I have too many, I did ask myself if I need (to keep) all of them.⠀
⠀
My essentials are (not pictured) black ink pads in various ink types, embossing ink pads and StazOn in different colours.⠀
⠀
The VersaFine Clair is a brand new addition (I like it a lot!), but I found that quite a few smaller pigment ink pads had completely dried out.⠀
⠀
Apparently, I can't use them up fast enough. Some of them were only a year old!⠀
⠀
My biggest dilemma, however, is the dye ink pads. I only use them once in a blue moon. I can't even remember the last time I needed them for anything!⠀
⠀
I would love to know a way to use them (up), before these ink pads dry out too.⠀
⠀
So... Is there something cool I can do with them (that I can't do with watercolours, liquid inks or waterbased-markers) that I need to learn or be reminded of?⠀
⠀
What do you like to use dye inks for? I would love to hear!⠀

The Stencilfied Journal 2019 | Prompt #8 Beautiful - Christina Aguilera ⠀
⠀
Tina Walker (@adogslife13) revealed the Stencilfied Journal 2019 finale prompt last week. The @stencilgirl_products collaboration challenge has officially ended, but I've still got a few journal pages to share!⠀
⠀
This prompt was a piece of cake, because I knew that somewhere in my stack of collage materials was a magazine with a beautiful photo of Christina Aguilera on the cover. ⠀
⠀
For the stencilled background I wanted to try gel printing with @panpastel, like I've seen @birgit_koopsen and @carolyn_dube do in videos.⠀
⠀
This time I used @stencilgirl_products stencils by @carolyn_dube, Gwen Lafleur (@gwenaval), Terri Stegmiller (@tstegmiller) and Daniella Woolf (@dottystripes).⠀
⠀
Besides a @gelliarts gel printing plate and PanPastels, I used matte medium, acrylic paint, a paint marker and a gel pen.⠀
⠀

Please note that though I am a @stencilgirl_products columnist, this is not a sponsored post! I'm participating in this collab because I think @adogslife is thebombdotcom.⠀
