We now have these cute fat bottles of 2oz. Color Wash Inks In Stock. Here's what Art Educator Tim Holtz has to say about them!
From Tim Holtz's Blog November 2010:
... i'm so excited i can finally share the news that ranger has revamped, revised, redesigned, and rekindled my love for color wash! this is a product that believe it or not was released the same time distress inks came into the world. i've used this product in my DVD's and have taught many workshops using this very intense textile dye. this innovative formulation of spray colorant has some cool qualities too:
- highly concentrated translucent dyes are formulated for porous surfaces like papers, wood, fabric, ribbons, and canvas.
- when combined with water, the dyes become even more intense and blend throughout your project so a little color wash goes a long way!
- because it is a textile dye, you can use it on natural fabrics for home decor or wearable projects
- coordinates with the popular adirondack palette with 12 colors
now color wash has gotten even better with these qualities:
- same great formulation as the original, but now in a more convenient sized bottle that fits in the palm of your hand.
- a new spraying system to create the look of airbrush with it's revised spray top.
- 4 new bright colors added to the palette: sunset orange, purple twilight, sailboat blue, meadow
so if you haven't worked with this incredible colorant from ranger, check with your local retailer to see if they're getting the new adirondack color wash from ranger - it's shipping now! to show you a few more cool things you can do with color wash, check out this video i did on ranger's website. yes, things just got more colorful indeed...t!m

As mentioned in our previous update, we received a couple more holiday/winter themed Penny Black Wood Mounted Rubber Stamps. Here they are:
L-R: Starlit Tree, World Peace, Snowdust Tree
And we've also added some links to quick and easy project ideas for some of these stamps. A closeup of the Snowdust Tree accented with Stickles Glitter Glue is shown at the top of the page. These stamps really couldn't be better for creating a classy looking card very, very easily!
Ranger has released Liquid Pearls dimensional paints in 15 colors and we have them all!
The new colors are rich and deliciously pearly. You can use these fine tip applicator bottles to dab, squiggle and accent, or use a bit of water to thin Liquid Pearls and create a pearly wash.
We also are offering a set of all 15 colors at special pricing.
And we've put a few project samples on our site to show you how the Liquid Pearls add a great bit of dimension to handmade cards and other artwork.
We used them on some of the new Penny Black rubber stamp images we've just received:
We now have Martha Stewart's 24 Multi-Pack of Glitter in stock.
The Shaker Top Vials are a generous 0.37 oz size and the glitter is gorgeous. It's a great way to get all the colors - or break up the set into little stocking stuffer gifts for friends.
The Martha Stewart Crafts site also has some beautiful project ideas for the Holidays. We tried the one below - added bits of glitter to selected areas of a photo. It really pops and is an unexpected surprise in a simple photograph.
And then there is this one showing all 24 colors of glitter adorning Christmas Ornaments!
Finally, we've included a video on our site giving some nice glitter techniques like punched glitter shapes, using glue pens to write and doodle with glitter, etc.
We have restocked some favorites and added new Holiday Clear and Wood Mounted Rubber Stamps to our site.
We now have more of Tim Holtz, Donna Salazar (Cling Mount Stamps), Penny Black, Inkadinkado and more. Below is a little sampling of what we have in stock at the moment.
