The Ranger Tim Holtz Distress Oxide Ink Pads are a revolutionary medium for mixed-media artists, card makers, and paper crafters. These water-reactive dye and pigment ink pads offer a unique and versatile formula that creates beautiful oxidized effects when combined with water.
Key Features:
Hybrid Ink Formula: Distress Oxide Ink is a unique blend of water-reactive dye ink and waterproof pigment ink. This fusion allows for vibrant, layered color that also has a beautiful chalky, oxidized finish when misted with water.
Versatile Use: The ink pads are perfect for a variety of techniques, including:
Stamping: Provides a crisp and opaque image.
Stenciling: Ideal for creating detailed patterns.
Blending: Creates smooth, beautiful blends with the use of a blending tool and foam.
Direct-to-Paper: Can be applied directly to a surface for vibrant backgrounds.
Reactive with Water: The core feature of these inks is their ability to change color when exposed to water. A simple spritz with a water bottle will cause the ink to lift and create a beautiful, oxidized look, adding depth and dimension to your projects.
Standard Size: The ink pads measure a convenient 3" x 3", making them the perfect size for stamping, blending, and applying to a wide range of projects.
Reinkable: The pads are reinkable with the coordinating .5 oz re-inkers (sold separately), ensuring you can use them for many projects to come.
Coordinating Products: The colors in the Distress Oxide Ink line match other products in the Distress line, including Distress Inks, Sprays, Paints, and Crayons. This allows for seamless layering and creative exploration.
