My first Ustream!

I had so much fun doing my first Ustream show on Tuesday! You know, it's always fun to play with your toys, but it's even better to help someone else learn while you do it. I love teaching and sharing! There were many questions from the audience, and I promised some links and other information. This post will attempt to pull all that together for you. If I've overlooked something, please email me at scrapacat at yahoo, and I will edit this post to include the info.

Types of inks

Dye inks - water-reactive inks great for smearing and mixing:

Ranger Ink distress inks - a dry-time extended, heat embossable, water activated dye inks. 

Memento dye inks - when dry, perfect for use with Copic inks when heat set.

Pigment inks - glue or paint based inks, great for heat embossing and archival qualities

Stampin' Up Craft inks, 

Colorbox cateye chalk inks,

Versacolor and Versafine inks - embossable, archival, pigment inks.

Solvent inks - permanent on most non-porous surfaces, reactive with solvents like alcohol
