Whether you’re adding life-like shading to your handmade cards or experimenting with rich, vibrant colors, these markers are designed to make every project shine. Let’s dive into what makes these markers so special—and why you’ll want to grab a set (or three) today!
The Secret Behind Stampin’ Blends: Alcohol-Based Ink
Stampin’ Blends are alcohol markers, meaning they contain dye suspended in alcohol rather than water. This makes them perfect for blending and layering without streaks, giving your projects that professional, artistic look with minimal effort. Because of their alcohol base, they dry faster—so always remember to cap them tightly and store them horizontally to keep them fresh and juicy for your next project!
Dual Shades for Effortless Blending
Each Stampin’ Blends color comes in a light and dark duo pack, giving you instant access to effortless blending. Want to create depth, dimension, or a smooth transition from one color to the next? Simply layer the light and dark shades together for stunning results. No advanced skills required—just layer, blend, and let the magic happen!
Tips and Tricks for Perfect Blending
When using Stampin’ Blends, always stamp your image with a water-based ink like Memento Ink. Solvent inks like Stazon will smudge, and nobody wants that! Experiment with different strokes—circular, zig-zag, or feathering—to find what feels right. The most important thing? Just start playing. You’ll discover your own style and techniques as you go!
Features That Make Stampin’ Blends a Must-Have
- Two Tips for Maximum Versatility: Each marker has a brush tip for larger areas and a bullet tip for precise details. Color your big background in a flash, then switch tips to tackle the tiny touches.
- Almost 40 Colors to Choose From: Start small or go big—there’s a color for every mood, season, and project. Build your collection one shade at a time, or grab your favorites all at once.
- Easy-to-Use Color Lifter: Made a little oopsie? No worries! The Color Lifter helps push stray ink back into place or lightens areas for perfect shading corrections. It’s like an eraser for your artwork.
