Sherry recommended using Versafine Ink for the Santa image and I thought this might be a good place (stamping techniques) to recommend this ink to people who are just beginning to try out and learn about all of the different types of ink on the market.
Once I discovered Versafine I use it on all of my finely detailed stamps. Who'da thunk ink could be so different, but it is! And Versafine is just as its name implies: it is versatile and will give fine, detailed stamps very clear, crisp stamped images.
Just a suggestion to those new to stamping that your choice of ink does indeed make a difference as to the appearance of your stamped image. Versafine isn't for everything, but if you have an image that is finely detailed and you don't want heavily inked images, this will give you a hand drawn look to the impression.
So there you go...now there are even more supplies to add to your shopping list, along with pigment inks, versamark, dye inks, stazon....yep...you NEED them all! (tell your husband or significant other they are a necessity, just like a specific size screw or nut or bolt!) I'm just trying to enable you here!
