Can anyone tell me if they have ever tried to used glossy photo paper inplace of the standard glossy paper? I seem to have a lot of scrap from it after I make a scrapbook and I was just thinking--I think I will give it a try and see what happens.
Let me know if anyone out there has tried it and what ink they used.
I've used it for both crayon and Versamark resist and had it work just fine (DH works for Kodak so we have a TON of it!). I've only used classic ink. HTH!

I haven't, but a coworker has and she said don't bother trying to substitute glossy photo paper because it was a mess. Worked great when she switched to the glossy CS.

It works ok for some techniques (crayon resist), but others not at all. Also most of the techniques just have a better result on the glossy (particularly the brayer techniques) with a more even, blended, smooth look.
