Today, I share how to use VersaFine Clair in multiple ways! This fabulous pigment ink allows for crisp clean stamping, stenciling, and layering. It works wonderfully for embossing sentiments “I am So Sorry” on vellum for sympathy cards and can be used under mediums such as Creative Medium. I stamped a teddy bear image with Memento ink and used Copic Markers for coloring, however, VersaFine can layer on top of the Copic coloring. See how I use VersaFine carefully with Alcohol Markers.

Thank you for sharing these tips. It is very helpful for me to find the best ink to use with Copic markers.
I got Tsukineko ink particularly to use with alcohol markers when coloring a stamped image. It isn’t smeared or runny in the least. Those imprinted pictures remain sharp and distinct.
