Fantastix - how to use?

[Karen Stamps!]

Any tips on how to use a Fantastix stick? I got one and I'm not quite sure what to use it for. Anyone have any advice? TIA

I find them hard to use but they are useful when making coasters and you want to dab in color using palette or staz on inks. Touch the sticks to the ink pad and then dab on the color...it doesn't last too long so you have to "refill" it by dabbing often.

Others said they use it to make their own markers so I'm not sure if you would stick it in a reinker? :confused:

I love my Fantastix and have used them to apply chalks and pastels; used them to apply ink to edges of items and I have used them as markers by dipping into my SU craft pads and then coloring with them reloading as necessary. I'm not sure how they work with classic dye inks because I stick with the craft inks except for the In Colors, because I have no choice. Oh, I've also used them to color embossed images on my scrap pages using my craft inks. HTH:p
