Smooch Spritz Problems
I know about the clogging & haven't had that problem, but it makes my ink run!! I used SU new ink pad, let it dry for a couple of hours, then sprayed with the CS laying flat & it ran all over. Am I doing something wrong? Thanks for any help.

Well since the SU inks are water based, that makes sense. I've used it with India Ink (made for watercoloring) and Memento and haven't had any problems. Were you using basic black? Or a color?

Well that's definitely it - you can't use anything wet with the basic dye waterbased inks - you need to use an ink that is suitable for watercoloring.

Try spraying cardstock first, then stamp after it is dry. I did that (not on purpose), and it worked great!

i like "smooching" first anyway, that way the stamped image is on "top" and is clearer.
