The main difference between the oxide and inks is the oxidation of the oxides when you wet it on paper. If you are not doing mixed media, you probably should use the inks. You can wet them as well but they do not oxidize. As far as being juicy, you stamp off on scrap paper first then stamp your project. They are new that’s why juicy. Tim has great video on the differences. Hope this helps.
To me The oxides give you a chalk paint effect. If you are wanting clear images when stamping try the archival permanent inks. I use ink refresher because I live in a very dry climate. For 3 in one decant into sugar bell bottles and you can thin it down (if needed) with alcohol 😊
It does, thanks 😊
Thanks sweetheart 👍🏻😘
If you are looking for a braver try to find a Speedball brand. It is much better than the Tim Holtz one. I replaced my Tim Holtz one twice then got the speedball one and it is much better.
I notice all your plastic envelopes that you keep everything in, I love them,now I want to get some,I do love your list,and I love that you love yourself,positive is so nice to hear,I love watching your channel.
😊🥰👍🏻
Just now watching this one today and so happy you made this one long video in one go. I appreciate your honest opinions expressed in a humorous manner and also appreciate how much time and effort went into the making of this video❤…it really flew by for me. 😊
Sugar belle icing bottles are the best for fabritac/fabrifix/3in1 Beacon. The big bottle oozes to much and those little bottles are frustrating. Definitely sugar belle bottle will ale all the difference and you can get silicone caps for the icing bottles
Thanks 👍🏻😘
Love all the tools and stuff you introduced here. Totally understand your feelings about the alphabet sizzix. You could abandon using them to punch fuzzy letters completely and instead use them to make dangles for journals. Colour them with alcohol inks, embossing powder etc, however you want, or with nail polish (much cheaper) and voila! you have some pretty dangles or charms.
That is a great idea 😁👍🏻
I use the White Ink.... to stamp for using EMBOSSING Powder.
It is nice to hear I'm not the only one that prefers the original inks over the oxides. TO me it just looks like white gouache is added. When you talk ink pads you have water based such as the original distress inks, pigment like VersaFine, ink based pads like Archival, and Oil based like SazOn. You mentioned that your SazOn dried out quickly... The reason for this is usually that people throw out the inner see through plastic cover. They think that it is shipping material but it actually is there to protect the pad. This may or may not be your issue. If your pads are drying out there are some easy inexpensive fixes. For water based pads you can mist them with water and let sit for a minute. It will not bring back pads that are out of ink but is very useful for reviving ones that are just dry. For pigment pads glycerine you get from baking or pharmacies is very affordable an works miracles. only a couple drops let sit if it needs more you can ad 2 drops at a time but do not over use. Hope that helps.
Thanks for the tips 👍🏻😘
I totally agree on the inks vs. oxide. I just commented that the difference is the same as gouache & watercolor. The inks penetrate the paper whereas the oxides tint it by stay on the surface and move around if you monkey with them giving an opaque gouache appearance (extrapolated from a Tim Holtz video I watched years ago).
As a new crafter, (well a retired person returning to crafting after many years...lol) I found this video very helpful! Good job❣️I love your videos!😘
Thanks Chris, good to hear you are crafting again 😁🥰
The best way to understand oxide and inks is to watch Tim Holtz videos. He explains the features of each type of ink.
Thanks 👍🏻😘
✨🌼❣️❣️❣️🌼✨
Thank you very very very much Margreth ❣️❣️❣️
Re the light colored Distress Oxides that don't show up: I use them for altering and distressing photographic images. Photos are often too dramatic or colorful or contrast-y to fit in well with other elements, so I alter them with a light color ink as a filter to knock them back a little so that they "sit down" on the page better. "Old Paper" is one of my favorites for this, but I also use Spun Sugar, Stormy Sky, etc.
👍🏻😁😘
The tweezer scissors are called Castroviejo scissors if anyone is looking. They are a surgical instrument for eye surgery I think Castroviejo was just the guy who invented them. :)
Eye shadow is made of mica. Resin workers use it a lot instead of expensive mica powders.
On the Tim Holtz label dies, use a sponge and dab on the die, see if that helps. It make take a bit of fiddling. On the abc’s. Use tape to line them up and punch out tape them.. layer post-a-note sticky side up. Put paper you want to punch out of it the post a note, put die on top and put low tack take on top. It may, be easier to use..
Sounds like a good plan 👍🏻😘
I would like to thank you so much, I got fed up with making cards, to be honest, I got bored with it. I am now after watching your channel into the lovely grungy stuff, you have got me going again. I loved the little labels. I am now your biggest fan. I have just had my 71st birthday last Saturday and I am now going to start to do journals. I am going to binge watch your videos. Sending lots of love from the UK❤
Congrats sweetheart, so happy that you like my videos 😘
Put temporary adhesive removable adhesive on the Elisabeth craft sticky. Wash the with warm water and mild soap
Margreth, try lightly rubbing the stamp with very fine sandpaper. Iod designs very expensive stamps etc and they recommend that gently sanding on their stamps. It makes them a little less sticky and they hold the ink better.
👍🏻☺️
Margareth, thank you for your candid opinions and recommendations; this is such a helpful video. I have been subscribed for a couple of months now and totally enjoy your craft and your personality. I also cannot believe you have only had your channel for less than a year. Other crafters have said it's about normal to get 1,000 subscribers in your first year - you surpassed that goal long ago and have more followers than many long term crafters. It just goes to show what talent and personality can do for you. Here is looking forward to a healthy, happy and successful 2023 for you and your family. Happy New Year. 💖🎆 👍
That was also my expectation, so I was shocked to see the growth so fast.
Very grateful ofcourse ☺️
Hoping for many more years 🥰
New Subscriber..from Arkansas, USA. I used to have a good friend that was born in the Netherlands.
I found it funny that U brought up the make up! My supplies have been packed away for awhile and haven't found my inks yet, My Mom has some eye shadows...one case has like a dozen shadows, including..a BROWN & a BLACK for use as eyeliners + a creamy yellow that worked VERY Nicely for "aging" something that way too white. Plus she found a pack containing 5 Glitter shadows. I used a cheap small Paint brush, a make up brush I don't use, a couple of makeup sponges (a Firm 1 & a Soft 1)...1 of those cheap foam paint brushes, & of course the little sponge applicators in the eye shadows..(which U can purchase a small pkg of Extras for a round a $1.00. THEY ALL WORKED! A bottle of Elmer's Multi Purpose Glue..(which can be turned into Decoupage glue! NEVER understand people paying $10 for a jar or Modge Podge, when U can just pour some of the glue in a small jar..add just a LITTLE water, stir...And U HAVE IT! On. THE. CHEAP! Been doing that for years...NO PROBLEMS w/it.)
I really take it as a PERSONAL CHALLENGE, to see what I can find...NOT marketed AS "Craft" & see what I can do with it!
It’s so much fun to search for alternatives 😁👍🏻
thank you!
This was really good! Thanks!!!!
Oh thank you so mutch, This was sooo helpful and inspire

Just watched this, only started scrapbooking in March came across you and love your video. Respect your opinions and loved your top20 which is very useful. Thank you
Happy New Year to you. Thank you so much for sharing all your favorites.
Happy new year 🥰
All acetone based glues like beacon will volcano, because it needs to be thinned down, however, using the icing piping bottles like the one from Sugarbelle helps greatly as long as you keep it full. ❤
Thanks for the tip lovey 👍🏻😘
A Ferry Belgium video! Thank' s a lot! Und Best wishes for the new year!
👍🏻😘

Thanks sweetheart, happy new year lovey 🥰
I HAVE.. GOT TO Buy some ink stamps Soon! I've run out SOO many colors don't work anymore.
AAHH, I'M.. NOT.. the Only one that uses MAKE-UP. I DO give what everywhat ever I've used it on, a quick mist of hairspray after a few minutes to help set the makeup. I decided to try it after discovering how FEW of my inks Stilled worked(& having a look at all the eyeshadows that mother has... lol)
😁👍🏻
Thanks for the info
👍🏻😘
Wonderful video. Happy new year.
Happy new year🥰
Happy New Year, Margareth! I absolutely loved this video, and agreed, with almost everything! I can vouch for your digitals, I adore them. Keep doing what you love, Lovie! Hugs, from Joliet, IL, USA.
Thank you so much sweetheart 🥰
I didn't find you until June 2023. I'm going back to watch others. Love you channel!
Thanks, and welcome to my channel dear 😁😘
Thank you for such a detailed and honest review of supplies. You’ve introduced me to a couple of new brands. I’m always happy to hear of European supplies too. TFS
👍🏻😘
Sizzix makes a really die cutting brush. And I live the speedball rubber brayer because its easier to clean or one made my ranger.
Thanks for your favorite supplies video. Have a Happy New Year.
Happy new year 😘
I enjoyed watching this video and all the tips and treasures you shared. I bought your digital kit that was in your top favourites list and it is fabulous - I love it. I had already purchased this kit prior to making it to your top 20 list. I have added the 'Eccentric' clear stamp to my wish list. Thank you for candidly sharing all this info. Happy to say I have a few of the things that made it to the list. I've also been binge watching your videos since discovering you a few days ago Margreth and making some of your projects. Happy New Year!
Happy new year Reenie 🥰
Leuke informatieve video!! Keek heerlijk weg! Mijn complimenten voor je Engels. De beste wensen voor 2023!
Beste wensen Aartje 😘
I thoroughly enjoyed this video. Thanks and best wishes for 2023!
Thanks Susan, happy new year 😘
This was very helpful.
👍🏻😘
Thank you very much for this video! I've been watching it over several days and was updating carts on different shops :))
Happy shopping 🥰👍🏻
You Love your stamps so much they sell believe it or not in a dollar store or on line dog grooming scissors with one side a comb edge and it looks just like the stamp perforations when you cut.
Oh yes, also hairdresser thinning scissors are the same. I bought a pair for this purpose. It's awesome!
Awesome 👍🏻😘
You kept apologizing for such a long video. As a new don't journal maker I found it very interesting to watch as I was doing a bunch of fussy cutting. Your reviews of these items was very helpful.
👍🏻😁
I love this. It is nice to see what others like to craft with. My printer is my number one favorite tool also!! I have to go look for the tab dies now. Happy New Year.
Thanks sweetheart 🥰
Happy and Healthy New Year to you!
Happy new year 😘
I loved this video! Thanks so much! I have been thinking about some of the Tim Holt stamp sets. I think I bought all of his Christmas ones, years ago. I do use them but they are such an investment. I should never buy anymore digital sets because I have so many but then you mentioned your favorite. Wow! I just went to her Etsy. Her digitals are beautiful! I want them all!
I know right , good value for money .
Christmas craft items are nice but can only be used for Christmas projects . That’s why I don’t have many of them . 🥰😊
I had no idea your channel is so new…so many subbies! Goes to show you…unique projects and techniques and a fun personality are the keys to success. I appreciate you.
Thank you so much Susan 🥰
I'm not sure how I missed this video but I did love this video. Please redo please please 😅 this is so good
I will , in December 👍🏻😁
Ive watched from start to finish in one go and totally enjoyed your review. Happy New Year and happy crafting , hugs from Tasmania 🤗🤗💕💕💕
Happy new year 🥰👍🏻
Tim holtz has a stamp that goes with the labels
Wow I cannot believe I watched all of this video, but I have to say it is well worth it. I appreciate your honesty and straight forward information. Thanks so much for taking the time to do this. Happy New Year wishing you lots of love, laughter, happiness and good health and many happy creative crafty moments. Hugs and Smiles
Same to you dear 🥰

Welcome to my channel dear 👍🏻😘
The hockey puck thing for the stamping platforms is a godsend if you have arthritis!
merci pour ce très interessant partage bonne fin d année a bientot🧡
Happy new year 👍🏻😘
You really should watch some of Timmy’s (as Gayle calls him) videos about the inks. That’s how I learned their properties. It’s helpful.
👍🏻😘
I am so glad to have stumbled across your channel, Margreth, now I'm watching every video you've ever made This video is particularly useful to me as I'm new to papercraft and I love your honesty. I also appreciate that you show alternatives to the products as some are not available or extremely expensive here in South Africa. Thank you for your time investment in making these wonderful videos - they are inspiring and I hope to soon tag you on some of my pieces, once I feel they're worthy to be shared. 👌
Thank you so much ☺️
Haha thought the numbers stamp would be at number 1. Happy New Year to you and hubby. XX
Thanks sweetheart, happy new year 🥰
very helpful and I really enjoyed this. Never worry about how long video is. I just pause if I need to.
👍🏻😘
Thank you!!! I watched the whole video in one sitting . 😂
I feel like you saved me a ton of money and heart aches ❤
Mission accomplished 😂👍🏻😘
Love the video Margareth and thanks for sharing. I found you a few months ago and I’m amazed that you’ve only been going since February. You have done exceptionally well with your channel and I look forward to your videos and watching you craft. 😊I’m intrigued by the whale tail dies and what to use them for. Could you do a video using them or include them in a video next year? Thanks you and Happy New Year from Down Under!
Thanks Jacqui, I will use the tabs for sure 👍🏻😘
I made my own deckle edged ruler. I used a triangular ruler that my husband had and wasn’t using. I made 2 different edges and kept one straight. I love it more than any I purchased
I did to bought the plastic rulers at dollar tree and took a pair of pliers and pinch out some little bits on one side and on the other side slightly bigger.I could not see paying that much for one.
👍🏻😘
Zou je weer een keer een update willen geven van je favorieten en waar je minder enthousiast over bent? Ik heb hier zoveel aan gehad!
Ik doe dit aan het eind van het jaar weer 😁
Well what an excellent video, I'm a newby and really appreciate this, on your information and my own consideration, I've taken it upon myself to order one or two of the pieces you've recommended, like the deckle edge trimmer £42 in UK and replaced with the ruler... Brilliant.
Thanks so much for these video's, they're soooooo helpful, oh and yes you do have a lovely accent 👍👍💞🤗💞💞
Keep up the good work and have a happy 2023.
Xxx
Thanks sweetheart 🥰
Happy New year Margreth. You share so much and I want to share with you too. Cut the ends off a aluminum can so that you’re left with a rectangle. Punch your dulled punches a few times which sharpens them for sure. Be careful not to get cut. Bye for now from California
Thanks for the tip 👍🏻😘
Thank you for sharing your top picks! It was lots of fun! I have seen many crafters use the Sugarbelle icing bottles to put their fabritac glue in toget a smaller stream of glue. Happy New Year! Can’t wait to see what you do I. 2023!
I use the Sugarbelle bottles and with the silicon top I can store it upside down and don't have leakage and the glue is always ready to use.
Happy new year Cathy 😘
Thankyou so very much for sharing yourself with us and thankyou for your time. Im just starting and find you so inspiring ❤
😁👍🏻
Absolutely loved this informative video. It’s great for beginners. 💯👍🏼🥰 You introduced me to new products.
👍🏻😁
I agree, the label dies are very tricky. I use a rubber brayer (not Tim Holtz brand) and I use archival ink. I also use smooth watercolor paper with these dies - other paper did not transfer the ink well at all. It always takes a few cuts before I get a really good ink and cut. Loved this video!
