The Tim Holtz Distress Mini Oxide Ink Pads Kit #11 is a curated 4-pack of 1"x1" ink cubes from Ranger Ink. This smart set is described as "soft romance meets inky drama," balancing elegant, vintage purples with a versatile, aged neutral. Like all Distress Oxides, these pads feature a hybrid dye and pigment formula that creates a unique oxidised chalky effect when sprayed with water.
What’s Inside Kit #11:
This kit is a favourite for vintage-gothic, floral, and magical mixed-media themes:
Blueprint Sketch: A bold, royal primary blue.
Victorian Velvet: A soft, dusty rose-pink.
Dusty Concord: A deep, classic garden purple.
Old Paper: A subtle, warm grey-green neutral with a vintage feel.
Key Features:
Hybrid Dye/Pigment Fusion: Provides the vibrant blending of a dye ink with the opacity of a pigment ink. This unique chemistry allows these colours to remain visible and bright even when layered over dark or kraft cardstock.
Oxidized Matte Finish: The hallmark of the Oxide line—when water is added, the ink reacts to create a "milky" or "frosted" antiqued look, perfect for grunge or ethereal backgrounds.
Superior Blending Control: Because the ink sits on the surface longer than standard dye inks, it is incredibly easy to blend with brushes or foams, resulting in seamless gradients.
Compact & Stackable: The 1" x 1" mini cubes are designed to save space and fit perfectly into the Distress Mini Ink Storage Tin (TDA42013). They are smart for crafters who want the full colour range without the footprint of full-sized pads.
Raised Felt Surface: The elevated pad makes it easy to ink stamps of any size or to use "direct-to-paper" for inking the edges of tags and journal pages.
