Ranger's Tim Holtz Distress Oxide is a dye ink and pigment ink in one. The Distress Oxide stamping ink reacts with water, just like Distress Ink. The difference is the coverage and the effect you can achieve. Distress Oxide is an opaque stamping ink that blends very well. Spray water over the ink to create an oxidised, chalk-like effect. The ink continues to react as soon as you add water, even hours or days later. Use Distress Oxide with stamps, stencils or directly on light or dark paper.
Distress products lend themselves perfectly to mixed media projects in which you combine various materials and techniques. For example, consider combining Distress Oxide with Distress Ink or sprays that are all available in the same colours. You can use the products in layers on top of each other for more depth or colour in your work. Ideal for all kinds of craft projects, such as card-making and scrapbooking. Simply refill the felt ink pad with the accompanying Oxide Reinker. This is sold separately and available in all Distress colours.
