Default Craft Ink ?s

I just tried out my first craft pad last night (white craft ink on vellum). I love the look and really like how the white ink looks.

I know from this site that since it's a craft ink that it will take longer to dry. But just curious how long will it take to dry? I don't want to stack up my pieces and chance ruining them.

Thanks!

I really don't know how long they take to dry...seemed like forever to me so I switched to the classic! I was always smearing stuff. I know you can heat set them with an embossing gun, but have never tried this myself!

Good luck!

Heat setting is great, but be careful on vellum. ... hold the gun a little higher, and don't heat as long as on cs.

White seems to take a while to dry. I'd let them sit about an hour and then check one.

You can heat set it - you can generally see it change from wet and shiny to dry. It just takes a few seconds.
