HELP ME!!!
 
I have been working on some clipboards for my nieces and nephews and I'm having a huge problem. I leave for the airport on Tuesday (it's Sunday) and my white craft ink that I stamped on them YESTERDAY morning is still not dry and it's almost been 24 hours!!! I didn't over-do it or anything, I've had this problem on cardstock too, but it has always dried over night. Maybe that's because the cardstock can absorb some of the wetness? Does anyone have any helpful hints? I tried using a hairdryer. I didn't use my heat tool. Suggestions?!?!?!? Thank you in advance!

Can you "heat set" it with your heat gun????

try putting clear embossing powder over it and then heat it with the heat tool. Sometimes craft ink can take quite awhile to dry.

I agree that the quickest thing to do would be to clear emboss over it. Otherwise I would try a few coats of fixativ spray and letting it dry in between coats.

Thanks so much. I'll have to try the embossing. Hopefully that will do it.

Well, did the embossing work? That is the one I would have chosen.
