Hello there,
As I was making today’s project I found myself re-inking every ink pad before I used it. I don’t add a lot of re-inker to each pad just about 10 drops. This is the perfect amount for my liking. I really dislike an over inked pad, but I really don’t like a dry one.
I’m asked often, “how do you get your scenes to look so vibrant?” Re-inking my ink pads often is the answer. My number one ink rule is never purchase an ink pad without purchasing the re-inker to go with it.
Also, don’t be afraid to be quite heavy with sponging or brayering. Keep in mind your projects will dry at least 2 shades lighter. Nothing worse than your project looking faded out after it dries completely. So, go forth and re-ink my friends. 🙂
You can see just how this was created in my tutorial for this project.
