Ranger September Distress Ink Pad, Wilted Violet

A funky and bright grape purple! Doesn't remind me of violets at all and it is much more like grape jelly than the Dusky Concord which is a muted grape tone. This is so vivid and joyous to work with. It's a large pad, not a mini-pad, so it's not great for fine detail but fantastic for inking large areas or for direct-to-paper methods.Distress products are water-based dye inks that remain water-soluble once dried or heat-fixed so they will run/merge/blend if you get them wet (inc. using a water-based dye or pen over them), so keep that in mind. They don't give even stamping on photopolymer or silicone stamps - this is normal and intentional with this line. With rubber stamps they are better but not perfect - grey rubber seems to give the nearest to even that you're going to get with Distress but this was the designer's intention and is not a product fault.

Excellent quality product, beautiful colour payoff and speedy delivery! Thank you! *****
