Dye ink

Dye ink

Dye ink has the following properties:

• most often comes on a felt pad (and in some cases on a foam pad)
• is see-through, which means that
  • ink layers will mix, so if you stamp a big image in blue and then a smaller red image on top, the smaller image will appear to be purple
  • it won't show up on black card stock
  • it will change colors depending on the paper below (whether that's colored paper or paper that has another stamped image on it)
• can be used for ink blending
• often water-soluble
• will become a bit lighter and more even when drying (so right after stamping the color may appear a bit darker and a bit blotchy or uneven)
• might bead up on your stamps, but you can prime your stamps to help prevent this
