Best white ink for stamping

[Sweetpeamd]

Hi,

I am new to this board, I usually hang out over at the Podcast boards.

I do a lot of stamping, and for years I have been searching for the right white ink pad. All of the ones I have tried (Adirondak and Versacolor are 2 that come to mind right now) are never visible when stamped onto darker, or even kraft cardstock. What is a good white ink to use? I haven't delved into embossing yet. Maybe that will be the only solution for me? Thanks so much for your help!

Hi welcome to our little corner!

I like the stampin up craft white. It has a small learning curve cause it's wet and takes time to dry. But it's the only thing besides embossing I've found shows up.

Thank you! I have a Colorbox Fluid Chalk ink in Popcorn that I had already ordered. If that doesn't work out (and my hopes are not very high), I will try the Stampin' Up kind.

I've used Close to My Heart and Stampin Up ink pads. The Stampin Up Craft pad is great. It does take a little longer to dry but it does show up very well on dark papers.

Brilliance has a nice white as well. As others have experienced - white just takes longer to dry!
