White Craft Ink Greeting Cards that will Blow Your Mind

[@mmhanson1]

Aha! I looked it up. Bokeh is pronounced "Bo-kay" like a bouquet of flowers. Just an FYI. Sorry, I'm a teacher - we become spelling and grammar dictators. LOL!

[@anneboyd2123]

Another way to get stray powder off is to use the take your pick tool, the tacky end and it will pick up any left over powder.

[@julieb737]

Good tip

[@sherrywoodard8562]

I love that you show us every step and explain the whys and how’s of making a card. It really helps.

[@SusanDavis-n7k]

Don't know if you have any control over your advertisements, but political ads are not a good fit for crafting. Otherwise, I loved the segment.

[@simplysimplestamping]

I do not have any control over the ads at all. I wish.

[@Vintagecomfort]

Loads of great ideas and techniques - thank you. I especially loved the splattering you did with the water pen and brown ink on the corner bouquet card. I occasionally dust, too 😆

[@kathryndrayton8058]

You can also use your clear embossing pad, & then use your white embossing powder, or any colour embossing powder you choose to use. As I've discovered that embossing powder is generally cheaper than ink pads, if you haven't got lots of coloured ink pads, or can't afford to buy a lot of colours, then having the coloured embossing powder is the way to go. Especially as they have pearlescent powders too. Either in colour or clear, & they look really amazing. As well as gold & silver. It's just an idea for beginners. You don't want to go out & purchase heaps of stamp pads in different colours. Also because you may not use coloured ink very often. I don't, that's why I have the embossing powder in lots of colours.

[@robinstewart6820]

“Embossing buggers” - spewed diet root beer all over my iPad when I heard you say that 🤣🤣🤣

[@carolbjornsen487]

Robin...every time I emboss I will remember “embossing buggers” too 🤪

[@robinstewart6820]

Carol Bjornsen me too! My husband already wonders why he hears crazy laughter (and cuss words if I’m being honest) coming from my craft room!

[@suetaylor352]

Thank you for showing different ways to use white ink. I had not seen the bokin technique before. Thank you for sharing.

[@marilyns2353]

I did the same with coffee on my phone! I'll never forget that!

[@bcdc2roam]

Great tutorial. I particularly liked the info on inking the craft pad. I’ve had mine for some time, but just wasn’t sure of correct method. Thank you!

[@joannevargas9638]

Wow wee!! Mind blowing card ideas using white pigment ink! I will now use my pad with your great instructions! You did it again, Connie! Thanks so much ❣

[@sheilacrace7839]

I’ve had that ink and pad for sometime now. The ink was so thick I thought mine was bad. Now I know better. Can’t wait to play now

[@michelleeaton5876]

Connie, Thank you for the lesson, it was excellent. Gave me LOTS of ideas❤

[@simplysimplestamping]

Michelle, I am so glad. Thank you for watching.

[@carolnicholls]

Really Like the tapped on white on dry emboss. It’s very antique looking. Thank you for your Master Classes

[@rondisalgado8006]

Thank you so much for sharing all these techniques Connie… awesome instructions!

[@debbieschuldt9799]

Thank you for the great tips, especially how to ink the craft white when brand new. I bought it but was hesitant to use it in fear of inking wrong. I will be getting it inked and ready to go.

[@loriwikoff1410]

White ink on kraft cardstock or crumb cake works great as a base for coloring.

[@laurasutton1551]

I do not like that ink pad i prefer unicorn whits tge other isnt white enough

[@elfincrafter]

I haven't tried the Whisper White Pad. I have the Unicorn, but mine is far too juicy. I bought the StazOn back in the day it was horrible. I think this one looks good. Regardless, the techniques are fabulous. Many, I've done before, but forget about!! 🇬🇧♥️

[@nolaventura6747]

Thanks for the tips and techniques. I need to write down the "like you are kissing a bunny". Not sure why but I like to tap, tap, really hard on my stamp pad with my image and my stamped image will look a bit mooshed. Lightly does it!

[@lisaq4733]

Thank you....so helpful. I think you are the first one I have seen demo it.

[@mariaarchetti4126]

Do you deliver to Duabi, United Arab Emirates....? 😇😇😇

[@terrieminneman2500]

So many tips!!! Thanks so much!!! I, too, have learned so much and am having fun!!!! Keep the techniques coming, Connie!!!!!

[@bobbimiller1697]

Great video Connie! I have done the Bokeh technique before, but not with the colors down with daubers first like this. What a difference! Thanks for sharing!

[@judithsigler9644]

Oh Connie, this was FUN! I’d forgotten about perhaps using CLEAR EP and I liked that you shared “different looks” w/both! TONS of lovely results with the WHITE PIGMENT INK! Good idea to clean your stamps w/one side of the Shammy n’ use other for colored inks! :-) LOVE the finished creations, too! The BOKEH was REALLY COOL n’ I was thinking of other inks to combine as you did yours! :-))) INSPIRATION! :-) TFS n’ HAPPY CREATIN’! Sending SMILES from Madison, WI! :-)

[@DocklarProductions]

What a great informative video!!!! Love it. Thanks for sharing 💌😊

[@patriciagraham4786]

Thank you, Connie, for showing different ways to use White Craft Ink. You are a real inspiration.

[@ritatharp5238]

Thank you for sharing Connie 💖, I love this chalkboard technique but haven't used it in awhile, time to bring it back out. 👍

[@simplysimplestamping]

Rita, You are so welcome!

[@alit8331]

The bokeh technique you taught blew my mind. Wow, it is impressive and gorgeous!

[@helenpeck2274]

Looks like I need to get that white ink pad out again. Thanks Connie for another great video Much appreciated x

[@julieligon9501]

Love this! Thanks for this Master Class series.

[@judyfarmer2962]

I’ve learned some great techniques. If I didn’t already have a SU consultant, I would certainly buy from you. I love how you explain everything.

[@joannevargas9638]

Bet ya still could!

[@lauramartin7300]

Love this. Question... is the white craft the same as white ink pad? Don't want to get the wrong thing. I love the white . Glad you explained about heat gun. I bought embossing supplies and haven't used them yet. I would of probably just turned heat gun on and wondered why it wasn't working right away.. lol. Thanks for all of these ideas..

[@lauramartin7300]

@@simplysimplestamping ok, THANKS for clearing that up for me.. still kinda new to different kinds of inks. Oh another question, is that ink pad strictly for the white ink. Lol sorry to be a pain..😏

[@annelumsden5045]

Great tips, thank you.

[@denisemouton]

Wow, so many techniques! Thanks Connie!

[@brendaelainewaddell1682]

Thanks so much Connie. You always seem to have some interesting techniques to show us. 😊

Also, if you have ep near image a toothpick lightly dipped in water (just damp) will pick up stray pieces 👍

[@simplysimplestamping]

Great tip!

[@lorilazise1521]

Great ideas. Thanks for sharing. How do we clean the stamp after using the white craft ink? Same way as the regular ink?

Diane, Thank you so much 😀

[@mangobaby2]

I loved the techniques. When you were showing the embossing powder changing, the camera seemed too far away from the cardstock. I felt that about all your examples. A little too far. But I already understand the techniques so not a problem for me

[@sallygal100]

GREAT ideas!!! I have the white craft ink and just don't use it that much but I will now!!!! And the other techniques look fabulous and didn't seem time-consuming so I'll give 'em a try!!

Hi Connie, I didn't realize SU had a white stamp pad. Is the pad "linen" topped or a foam pad? Thx for sharing all the great ideas. 🌻

[@sheriMonforte]

Thank you!! So many questions answered with your videos!!!!

[@PHamm54]

Is the blender pen alcohol based?

[@cindyellis765]

You Stampin Up gals are absolutely amazing. Love watching you

[@julieb737]

“I occasionally dust” ! Who has time or inclination to do that when the cloth has a much better use .

[@simplysimplestamping]

Julie, you just made me laugh out loud. We have several private dusting jokes.

[@madusonkeeper]

[@roselaurapereiramalone9016]

Hi Connie! Quick question! Is this ink phone safe? Are our other stamp pads photo safe?

[@softwindcrafting]

So you emboss over all your stamping with the craft ink?

[@fernzazzetta4651]

Thank you for your great tips Connie! What is the name of the stamp that you used on the Magenta card? 👌🏻💕🐨🌺

I don't have a white ink pad, but I've been wanting one for Dry embossing, I love that splash white look on embossed images! I definitely need to invest in one now!

[@deanettelinville6010]

Did not realize how you could use the white craft ink like that! It's so much fun learning from you! Thank you!

[@ednam7]

Learned a couple of things I've never tried. Thanks.

[@smileyj53]

Do you have to emboss when using the craft ink?

[@simplysimplestamping]

Yes, it needs to be dried. Otherwise, it will smear. You might try heat setting it, but I think it is better to emboss it.

[@karendotson4632]

Thanks so much for sharing this. I had no idea what to do with craft ink. Definitely will try these tips.

[@marylaffin6948]

great ideas. Just wondering if you can color the image using a water brush as well as the blender pen?

[@rosepanko2625]

Great video! Quick question... is white StazOn the same thing as craft white ink?

[@marilyns2353]

No! StazOn dries very quickly. Pigment ink (craft ink) takes a while to dry. StazOn is great to color in. If you want to color in a pigment ink, you have to wait awhile for the pigment ink to Dr first, or it will smear and mix with your color.

[@verafeldman7991]

Connie, seeing this late, but really appreciate it. I have had my white craft pad for ages, used it then, but now it has been sitting for years, unused. I did purchase the refill a couple years back, but still have not been using. I had no idea that you could use it like embossing ink! I love the vintage corner technique. The first image that you showed, I thought it was a die cut, raised with dimensional! It has such a great look of depth & shadow! Great techniques! My white craft ink will be getting more uae now! Thank you!
