    Hi! i just wanted to say again that you can do this technique with ANY ink you have. And with any inking tool! I just am sharing how easy these inks blend. But you can use what you have! :)

    • @barcelonachair6487
      @barcelonachair6487 Před 2 lety

      This video was the best explanation of these types of inks anywhere. I have been searching for answers about them since their release, but other than the description of "juicy" I have been stumped. I have a good selection of inks and limited space I needed to know more before I tried a few. Thanks for explaining properly. I will try a few in some ranges they seem different from what I have.

  • @cindyrobinson2199

    I must say, Simon's inks are very rich. You are right about how the blending looks effortless. Each card's composition and colors are gorgeous. Thanks for these great examples. I do like that someone thought of adding die cuts along with the embossing folder.🌷🌷

I have two shelf Susans on my desk and they are terrific! The butterfly cards are my fav!! TYFS ❤️🦋💜

      @jennifermcguireink  Před 2 lety

      those products do exist but not as much, as they dont sell as well :( but there are LOTS of animals! i just dont use them as much because i dont enjoy coloring :) www.simonsaysstamp.com/search?currency=USD&q=animals

    • @corinne1691
      @corinne1691 Před 2 lety +1

      There are a lot of plaid embossing folders that are excellent for masculine cards. geometric folders are also perfect for masculine cards and you can easily cut out sections of the design yourself to “highlight”. Even just cutting out a circle using a circle die and popping it up in the center would work well. Just a thought!

    • @jennifermcguireink
      @jennifermcguireink  Před 2 lety +1

      such a GREAT idea. I love love love geometric cards. just change up the colors and you can change up the feel of the card!

    I can’t wait to “up my game” using your ideas. Thanks for always inspiring me! I also have a question regarding storage of my many embossing folders. I noticed that you label your folders. Do you also put them in clear pockets or can they be stored without that step?

    • @jennifermcguireink
      @jennifermcguireink  Před 2 lety

      Of course! You can store them without the pockets. I just like the uniform look and the labels I can put on them

    • @jennifermcguireink
      @jennifermcguireink  Před 2 lety +1

      A brayer works best. But you could use a full size ink pad and with a very light hand rub it over the surface

    • @harriettezmalloy7182
      @harriettezmalloy7182 Před 2 lety

      I cut a piece of craft foam to fit a blending tool, & glued it to a felt piece, that’s used for alcohol inks. (The felt just let’s me attach it to the blending tool). Use the foam with the white ink, it spreads the ink nicely & stays firm so you don’t get ink in the crevices. And you can just wipe it off with a baby wipe when you’re done.

    Thank you, your cards are nice. I like the look of those ink pads but us average crafters can only afford so much…….

      I hear ya! With ink pads even if I get new colors I still find I go back to my good old favorites 90% of the time. 😀
      That’s why I love embossing folders, low price but big impact!

      I get it TOTALLY. But many crafters are looking for the *perfect* ink for them. So the most I show and teach about inks, the more helpful it is. HOWEVER as i said in the video, these cards can be done with ANY inks! :) that is why it is a great technique.

    Can't you just use the same brushes on different inks, can't you just wash them well in between?

    • @corinne1691
      @corinne1691 Před 2 lety +1

      You can, you don’t even need to wash them. Just 4-5 good swipes across a paper towel gets off nearly all the ink. I do like having just a general set, 1 for each color of the rainbow just in case I forget to clean it off. But you’re right, it really isn’t a necessity. Although, I would definitely keep a special one just for white pigment ink and one for Versamark ink that I wouldn’t use on anything else so you don’t accidentally contaminate those ink pads.

      I don’t use the same brushes with oxide ink & then dye ink. I don’t want to contaminate the ink pads. So after I use oxide inks I’ll wash my brushes before using them for another type of ink.

    Any makeup blending brush will work - because that is actually what all the “ink blending brushes” on the craft market are - cents cost makeup brushes priced at $$$ for the unsuspecting crafters.

    • @jennifermcguireink

      i look at it a bit differently. :) yes! you can use make up brushes. however, i use the crafty company ones because i never knew these existed until they brought them to our crafty market. i appreciate that. i also know that some brushes are different. and these crafty companies have tested them out for me already, so i know they will work well. crafty companies have to charge more because they dont order huge quantities. they aren't making much off them. :)

      I agree they are nearly identical, however, the changes crafting companies made that I appreciate are the white bristles (which allow you to see the color of ink so you can keep colors separate) and/or the colored handles. I think this is a definite improvement over makeup brushes which are usually black with brown bristles that is worth paying for. Maybe for someone else it is not a necessity but I appreciate it.
