I like the color of this ink but have not been impressed with the Simon Hurley ink pads overall. I have only ordered these ink pads through Scrapbook.com but all seven of the ink pads I have ordered seem dry in comparison to the Ranger Distress oxide inks and do not go on to the paper as smoothly. I honestly feel like they have been a waste of my money.
I typically use two different brands of ink pads but wanted to try Simon Hurley since I follow him on YouTube. I purchased four colors and am quite disappointed. There isn't as much ink as with the other brands I use. I tried the direct ink to paper technique and could tell how little ink is actually on the pad. I would not buy this brand again.
For the past couple of months I have been on the hunt for the best non-oxide ink for blending. I have now tested 7 different ink brands, with different papers and different tools. Simon Hurley's Ranger inks have come out on top for me. A couple of others are close, but these are the best for me. I only bought 3 colours to test and will now be gradually building up my colours and the refills. The only thing I don't care for (and this is being REALLY picky) is the ink names - they aren't always intuitive...I'm a bit old school when it comes to that. LOL As you can see, it's not a big enough deal to knock a star off. :) I definitely recommend these inks for blending.
Love the vibrant colors! Hope that other colors will follow that will compliment the holidays! Great job, Simon!!!
This stamp pad is so pretty. It also goes nicely with the matching Lunar Paste !

The color is great...exactly as shown on the photo...a deep red that looks wonderful. That being said, Ranger needs to put more ink in the pads. This is not Simon's fault, but rather (I feel) a Ranger design flaw. It just didn't seem like it had enough ink. I even stored it upside down for a few hours in hopes it would get the top of the pad more juicy but it was only minimally better. I received this as a free add-on from Scrapbook.com so I went ahead and got the reinker for it. I would say if you purchase these inks, get the reinker right off the bat so you won't be disappointed.

What a great color. You can never get too many shades of red. Ranger makes a great ink pad.
A very nice dye ink pad in a cool new color. A freebie from SBC, thank you!
