Default Ribbon colours

Can you use re-inkers to dye white grosgrain ribbon? How do you do it? Thanks

I've done it in a card class, using the re-inker on a sponge dauber. Worked great!

If you look at the top of the page and click on resources there is a tutorial on dying white grosgrain ribbon with re-inkers.

my demo told us how she did it...
she used a round button box (stampin' up!) added a few drops of ink to a couple t. spoons of water and shake shake shake- she said it dried really fast too. good luck and happy stamping!

You can also use the SU markers - and you have lots of options. Works well with changing the colors of gingham ribbon too.

I have found that dying the white ink the lighter colors dye better then the darker colors. The darker the color the harder it is to get the ribbon to take the dye and make even a close color to it.
