Ranger - Tim Holtz Distress Embossing Ink Pad
Tim Holtz Distress Embossing Ink Pad
Emboss weathered vintage effects with controlled powder release
Embossing powder needs the right amount of moisture to stick, too much and it pools, too little and it won't adhere. This clear embossing ink maintains that crucial balance through its controlled release formula, giving you enough working time to tap off excess powder while ensuring clean adhesion where you want it. The slightly drier finish particularly suits distressed and vintage effects, where you're often looking for irregular coverage rather than perfectly uniform coating.
The 3-inch square pad matches Distress Ink and Oxide pad sizes, so it integrates seamlessly into existing Tim Holtz workflows. Larger surface area means fewer reinking passes when covering stamps or stencils, while the raised felt pad provides consistent ink transfer across both solid images and fine details. Heat embossing transforms the clear base into a slightly textured, translucent seal that adds dimension without introducing additional color, ideal when you want embossed elements to blend with underlying layers or when working with translucent and interference powders.
Reinker bottles extend pad life considerably. Rather than replacing entire pads, you refresh the felt as it dries, maintaining consistent performance across multiple projects while reducing material waste.
