Crackerbox Hop with Imagine Inks

Hello Stampers,

I am the lucky one to start everyone out on the hop we are having with the WONDERFUL company, Imagine!

I can't tell you how much I have LOVED their inks for many years, and still do :)!

I owned a store for 18 years and had every color of many of their lines of ink. I could go on and on about how much I love their inks. But let's get started.

This is one of my favorite colors (Pearlescent Sky Blue). It stays on my table all the time! I can't say enough about Brilliance ink. I wish you could see the shimmer. This is the only Pearlescent Pigment ink that stamps on paper, vellum, shrink plastic, and wood that I know of!

It's everything you want in an ink.

I used Clarity Brushes with Tulip Red Versafine ink and brushed it in one direction. This is the first time I have used the Versafine CLAIR, and I like it as much as their other inks. It's the perfect red for Christmas.

Then, I stamped the Knit Sweater And Mittens Set of 2, and the Ball Of Yarn with Versafine ink. 

This is the cleanest container I could find. I LOVE this 

ink for ALL of my words and fine-lined images, and I use it with anything I want to emboss.

I used the Pearlescent Sky Blue and wiped it around the edges to make the card I mounted the saying and card on. Can you see the shimmer?

On white card stock, I stamped Wishing You and Warm Winter, as well as other stamps that go with it.

The saying is 2 stamps.

My second card:

I used Imagine Inks, Tim Holtz Mini stencil set #22 and Clairty Brushes. 

I just dabbed and swiped the different inks all over the stencil.

The stencil is on the left for you to see. 

The colors I used: Acorn, Tulip Red, Sunflower Yellow, Thyme and Copper.

I have my initials on the inks because these are the ones I take with me if I stamp away from home.

OH, they might looks small but they are MIGHTY! 

I have had these little buggers for years and they are still inky.

The VersaFine CLAIR blended so easily and the colors are so rich!

I used Gold and went in from all of the edges and across the card to 

give it the most beautiful shimmer.

I did the same on this card as I did on the last card to make the color match. 

I swiped the ink pad around the edge of the card I used for the saying and the card that I mounted my image on.

Finally, done!

The saying is the stamp that we have on sale this month for $2.89.
