Tim Holtz Compares Distress Ink vs Distress Oxides at Scrapbook.com

[@roesquivel6110]

This is by far the best video explaining the difference between distress inks and oxides. Great visuals! Thank you!

[@LindsaysCraftCorner]

Huge Tim Holtz fan! ❤

[@kathybetzen1599]

In conclusion, the oxide has a dustier/chalkier effect when applied. Thanxxxx. This answered my biggest Q.

[@shannonm75]

I started card making 20 yrs ago, then got away from it now I am getting back into it. There's so much more now to work with. I'd like to do this along with other types of things like embellishments. I enjoy sending cards to people I know in my community. Gives me a lot of joy to do that to help others feel better.

[@MistressQueenBee]

Finally! I now have had an instruction video that told me AND showed me the differences of ink and oxide. Thank you. U R 1 smart Cookie!

[@silvermyth2119]

Thanks Tim! Like many others, I also had the same question. I now also understand the blending technique and why it makes sense by not starting directly on the project surface. 👍

[@ZaiyaFineArt]

great video im looking for how the ink pad itself is supposed to look i bought it at michaels and the pad is hard as a rock

[@marycosta3202]

I love the Distress Inks and Oxides although I don't own any of them because I can't afford them. But I'll keep watching and learning until I can afford them. I'm not discouraged just waiting for my time to come. by the way, this Christmas my children gifted me a Sizzix big shot and i love it so much! Thank you!

[@scrapbook]

Thank you for watching! So glad you love your new Big Shot.

[@mrsearlgrey]

I have one .... and would like more but can't decide what colors without wanting them all! None of the local stores carry them.

[@dan_lat]

Mary, Amazon now has a whole bunch of Tim Holtz’ stuff for $5-$10 so you might want to look there if you can’t spend too much money. All these inks are there and some are under $6 just in case you want to look!

[@SharitCreations]

Now I know the difference between ink and oxide. I have been wondering for a few years. I bought the ink now I also want the oxide. Thank you Tim for using the brush pens. I am glad they works I bought a set of water brush pens. I'm using those for coloring.

[@yolandebergeron8887]

Today, I learn something, you can emboss with distress ink and clear powder. I shall experience it much more. I enjoy and love learning something new. Merci beaucoup

[@aprildriggers3000]

Audrina Thorsen ~ I love your video. I bought Distress ink and Distress oxide inks and sprays but didn't know how to use them. Your video is very helpful. Thanks so much. Now, I'm really anxious to play with them!

[@lilianahurst6763]

Thank you I always did want to know the difference between both oxide and distress inks

[@lindawaugh1974]

I really enjoyed your demo of distress crayons. I bought three of them and can’t wait to use them with collaging. Thank you.

[@shesellsseashells709]

I'd just like to add this is a fantastic video, thanks Tim, learned a ton, and so glad to have found your channel.

[@Taitcreates639]

Wow, Newbe here and those inks and pigments are the very first thing I purchased. Besides stamping with them, I didn't have a clue of the other marvelous things I can do with them. So exciting. Thank you Mr. Holtz .

[@lisavoncina6634]

Always great informative videos from Tim

[@scrapbook]

We are so happy to hear that these videos are so helpful! Thanks for your feedback Sandra. (:

[@nettiemoss324]

super video: I now feel educated ;-) Many thanks for your no nonsense , fun presentations!

[@bettyschaaf2658]

Excellent review Tim! Hugs!💕

[@bananashaveice]

I didn't think I needed the Distress Oxide inks....until now. TFS!

[@memekendall3197]

bananashaveice Like your "name" I love anything with bananas in it.

[@TrenaBrannon]

that's exactly what happened to me when I saw my first Oxide demo by Tim. hehehe

[@conniezollinger5677]

Ohhhh, they are so much fun. On photo paper, yupo paper

[@faithtaylor612]

I want ALL of them!! Including the work area mat!!! Love, LOVE, L O V E your products!! I am just a beginner so it will take me a while to build my stock...but what I have so far is a “DREAM!” Your products and crafting are better than PROZAC!! HAHHA They are good for the MIND!! Thank you Tim! Beautiful products!

[@scrapbook]

LOL You are funny! We are happy you are enjoying all the Tim Holtz treasures!

[@lynnereeder7117]

Great video and explaining! Thank you soooooo much!

[@kadieb1020]

Thank you. Just got my speckled egg collection and I'm obsessed ♡♡

[@107tatiana]

Wow thanks so much! Im new to these products. I only have a small inventory of them so far but i definitely plan on watching more videos and getting more inks!

[@bobbimiller1697]

Great info! I had NO idea about the differences. Thanks!

[@lorispitzer8289]

Thanks for this video, Tim. I feel like I learned a lot. I did not know that I could emboss w/ the regular inks. I thought only pigment ink worked for embossing, so I learned something new. Thanks for putting a color chart of all Inks & Oxides on your site!!! I really appreciated finding that last week.

[@debbleu]

Awesome tips for a beginner like myself! Thanks!

[@mistaytay003]

Tim you are awesome!👏🏽👏🏽

[@lilialao3459]

Hello Tim , you are my idol when it comes to mixed media art & crafting and I love all your products from dies to stencils to paper dolls and others.. thanks so much for sharing your creative mind to everyone of us who lives to craft and do art . Lilia

[@liliana1lfr]

Very much appreciated explanation. Continue to take good care, Tim!!

[@sandyp196]

This video makes me sorry I bought so many inks because now i don't have any budget for the oxides. Cool tutorial and explained well.

[@scrapbook]

Add them to your holiday wish list. :) The newest colors just arrived. www.scrapbook.com/store/ri-oxidebundle5.html Thanks for watching.

[@Kimo0tJJ]

Mr Tim Holtz, Thank you for these Inks

[@patcyzauskas7216]

I watercolor with distress ink but hadn’t thought of it with the Oxides. Thanks.

[@kimhund2782]

Thank you for the tutorial Tim! I love both the Distress and Distress Oxide Inks.

[@emsandmci8243]

Really good lesson and great teacher.

[@spremier9626]

This was great! I never knew the difference although I have both products in almost all of the colors. To be honest, I’m not sure I realized they were different. I think I just noticed some were big and others were mini cubes. I thought they were ink/chalk hybrids. I’m excited to put my new knowledge to work. Thanks again, Tim! You’re an amazing instructor.

[@baby1345zzzz]

A very good demonstration of the 2 different types of inks. I am inspired by this and I do want to color more with water that my images would really stand out. Thank you for sharing.

[@MariaNyceDesigns]

Thanks for giving this detailed tutorial on the various uses of Distress Ink Pads & Distress Oxides Tim, I appreciate your time and talent! Hugs!

[@jenniferorchard8972]

I have learnt a lot about yhe distress inks and the distress oxides thank you

[@scrapbook]

So glad you enjoyed! Thanks for watching :)

[@debbieelholm7921]

Thank you, Tim, for sharing the difference between the two. I don't have any of the oxides yet. I love the little palette for watercolor painting. I'm going to have to add that to my wish list!

[@scrapbook]

We hope it gets checked off your wish list soon! 😉

[@lincolnsmom5074]

Thank you so much for the explanation. It really did help especially with the demonstrations. Does the distressed oxides come in the mini cube?

[@LizBgood]

I hadn't thought about how the inks work with dark cardstock, so I found that interesting. I just order 12 more Oxides to add to the 16 I already have. I have both types of ink but I definitely prefer the Oxides. Just love blending with them. Great Video on the difference between them.

[@scrapbook]

We're so glad you found this helpful! Have fun creating with them. :)

[@bethmiller4266]

This is a perfect video that described the differences and abilities of both. Answered all of my questions, Tim. Thanks soo much

[@miroslavakral]

This is one of the most useful videos I have seen about how to use these products. Thank you!

[@kimbrown5605]

I love the oxides! Thanks for the video and tips.

[@KatieHaley-o1g]

Love this tutorial! Thank you!

[@NancyLynn]

You don't have to twist my arm to watch Tim in a video LOL! Thanks Tim & SB

[@scrapbook]

I hear you! He is an inspiration to us all. SBC LOVES when Tim and Mario come to film.

[@ritabrandow3750]

Thank you so much for all your great tips. I have always have trouble of using ink pads. Now I will get brave again. I will also try the reinkers. Can you get the extras from you. The paint brush that has 2 heads. The storage for the ink refill holding the paint. Also can you get smaller ink pads. I a widow on the fixed budget. Sorry I wrote alot. But I am excited. To finally start making cards again. Since my wonderful husband passed away

[@scrapbook]

I am so sorry for your loss. Great questions. I suggest signing up for the complete class from Tim Holtz here... www.scrapbook.com/classes/ The class is FREE and all the products are linked below each video. I think you will really enjoy the lessons and learn a lot along the way. Tim is an AMAZING teacher. Thanks for watching. Happy Monday!

[@stephaniesouifi7796]

you are amazing tim

[@1jenniferlala]

I have really been wondering about the differences between the two, thank you so much!

[@111061susana]

Help to work with unmount rubber stamps and the holts stamp platform comparison, please.

[@rosemarysurockart2111]

Thanks for this explanation & comparison. I love the distress inks a lot. I creat backgrounds with the inks on photo paper. TFS. 💙💙💙

[@rottngranny2876]

Thanks so much, Tim & SB.COM

[@elizabetheddy1073]

Tim thank you! I’ve bought 1/2 of ur oxide inks and absolutely love them!! Plus I have almost all ur alcohol inks and regular distress inks! They are by far my favorite medium to use!! Thank you so much, one of ur fans, Liz😊💗👍🏼 P.S. if there’s ever a show in Massachusetts that u’d be at id love to know?! Disabled or not I’d make sure I I’d make it there!!!😊

[@alijeffery1810]

I currently have 3 oxides (cracked pistachio being my fav) and saving up for more! Thanks for the video!

[@smashandcreate]

This video is extremely helpful!

[@lyndiegf]

Thank you, I’ve really been struggling with blending x

[@sharonpeterson2378]

This is one of the best video's you've done. Now I better understand the differences. In working with the inks, I find, for me, that I prefer the Oxide inks. And I absolutely love my water brushes. Especially the self flowing ones.

[@scrapbook]

We are so happy to hear this Sharon! 🥰

[@rlpfi1961]

This is a great video....great instruction on the difference and effects to gain from doing it right. Totally enjoyed this and really enjoying my inks. Bought several oxide's and they really are interesting in their application and effects. TFS T!m! :)

[@dianasdecorativedesigns]

I was so excited to watch this tutorial! I didn’t even realize that their is Oxide & Ink when it comes to the Distressed pads. I have a couple of your Distressed oxides that I use on my papercraft decor and I especially use them when making paper flowers. I love the coloring that it brings!! Some things I learned today just made my jaw drop, because I did not know that the blending pads were washable?! 😱 I’ve been throwing mine away after many uses. 🙈 The water coloring with the pens was extremely cool and now I want to give it a try too! I use 65lb cardstock with my paper crafting & wondering if it will work on it? Lastly, I use to use embossing powders in my scrapbooking days, but I think I need to pull it out again as it’s such a gorgeous look to add to any kind of decoration. Thanks Tim for sharing, I really enjoyed this video! 💗

[@scrapbook]

We are so happy you enjoyed the tutorial and can't wait to see all of your projects! 🥰

[@sharonpeterson2378]

Diana: I too use a lot of 65 lb. cardstocks. I use Michaels brand and have found my distress oxides to work really well on that.

[@bethmiller4266]

Hello Tim - in the future will you be producing metallic colors (gold, silver, rose gold, bronze) as distress oxides?

[@LivisSpanol]

i appreciate the tutorial, very eye opening! I will certainly enjoy both products, thanks!!!

[@jenniferjones5516]

Thanks Tim, you sure cleared a lot of questions I had about these two inks, I now know, I don't have oxdies at the moment, but will be getting some, have some cool effects.

[@dianec3279]

Very informative. As a newer crafter, this helped a lot. Love your videos😍! TFS!

[@mindismith9082]

EXACTLY what I was wanting to know. And how exciting to learn from THE Tim Holtz! Thank you!

[@shrug_shrugsly]

Very helpful and informative! Thank you !

[@christinel.4921]

Very informative and simply explained. Thanks Tim. 👍🏽

[@lynhabens4413]

Many thanks, I will try and remember!! Great demos though. Have bookmarked page in case I forget.

[@irhonda31]

Great tips! Thank you!

[@elainebrydon5236]

Great tutorial! Thanks Tim.

[@wandamclaughlin8405]

This was so helpful. Thank you!

[@andreamiller1550]

I loved this video! I learned so much from you!

[@margarethart7101]

I wish I had seen this years ago. Thank you

[@mariecamus2264]

I have just watched a video on storing and labelling the ink pads. I think it would much easier for us all if ranger supplied the matching label for us to stick on when we receive it. Or even the label already being on the side to begin with. What do think of that idea?

[@alanabooth5434]

Thank you great demonstration!

[@eileenschuller5309]

So many things I didn't know thank you for creating this video!

[@Ladycrafty6]

Great information! Didn't know about the embossing!😀tfs

[@abeph23]

Wow! Great demo.

[@debramirich4480]

Thank you Tim

[@brendalodge5633]

Hi there. Wondering if it's possible to turn my distress ink pads into distress oxide with re-inkers. Thanks for your time😊

[@cathymikequimbyquimby7315]

Thank you. I finally understand more about ink vs. oxide.

Great! So glad you enjoyed the video. His new colors arrived yesterday. You might want to check them out... www.scrapbook.com/store/ri-oxidebundle5.html Happy Crafting!
