I wanted to add something to yesterdays post. The inside of the top flower did not get versamarked well and didn't emboss. After the card was finished I used a Sharpie extra fine point paint pen and filled it in. I don't think you can tell the difference. I also wanted to tell the ladies that don't have the Distress Oxide inks that they sponge so beautifully. Better than the DI we all have. Just so soft and easy to work with. I only have a couple to try but I will probably get some more colors. Pigment inks don't sponge well but these are a combination of dye and pigment and they are a dream to work with. Be kind to one another.

You are so creative to use the paint pen to fill in the embossing!! I probably would have thrown it away and started again!! Love that idea!! Have a great day!! Big hugs :)

I just got the last of my 12 set...and totally agree. They spread so much more smoothly than the regular DI, and look beautiful over dark c/s! TFS

You are right Brenda, you can't tell that the top of your flower didn't emboss well. The paint pen worked beautifully! Good tip to know! Yes, I have seen people say how well the oxide DI's blend so easy and how they are so smooth and creamy. Makes me want them even more. lol Hugs, Brenda
