The metallic pigment is a slow drying, fade resistant, non-reactive ink that is perfect for use on scrapbooking pages, journals, planners, wedding invitations, wedding favours, Halloween cards, seasonal greetings, corporate logo stamps and other paper-based craft projects. It is a very shiny, glittery gold ink that applies with precision. It replaces gold embossing powder on your designs. The inks contain solid colour particles that are quite slow to dry. The stamps are embossed to provide an additional inking surface. The ink is stamped for uniform coverage.
