Key Features:
I saw Simon demoing these inks and I’m always adding to my inks so thought I’d give the black and brown a try. Awesome! So far I have stenciled and stamped. The true test came with use on acrylic stamps. I always use my stamp platform as I find on acrylic stamps the ink doesn’t cover well. Not true with these! One stamp and it’s covered. I will be ordering all the colors!!!

I badly needed a black dye ink - I've tried at least 4 other ones and either they were too faint (i.e., looked more like grey), or they smeared anyway when I colored with my alcohol markers. I resigned myself to either heat embossing all the 100 Christmas cards before coloring, or using a faint/grayish ink and calling it a "design choice". Stellar Ink in Black Widow lives up to its hype. It's crisp black (as good as my Tsukineko Versafine Claire!) and dries so fast. I forgot to wait and started coloring with my alcohol markers right away and - no smearing - even when coloring an animal face (you know, with the features just line drawings)! Just a LIGHT tap of your stamp on the pad and you are so good to go. GREAT JOB Simon and team!!!

I wrestled with whether or not to purchase these ink pads because they are pricey and I have other sets. However, they are worth the investment. These are so juicy and easy to use. Simon has an excellent brand!

I love these inks they blend beautifully and colors are vibrant. I just hope they come out with more colors so I can add them to my collection. The foam pads are great especially for my 72 year old hands that have a touch of arthritis. Good job Simon.

DO THE STELLAR INK PADS NEED TO BE STORED UPSIDE DOWN? WHAT IS THE RECOMMENDED WAY TO STORE THEM?
By:

Hello. It is generally fine to store Ranger Ink - Simon Hurley - Stellar Ink Pads either right-side up or upside down. While some crafters prefer upside down to keep the pad surface "juicy," Ranger indicates that many of their ink types (like Distress Oxide) can be stored flat/right-side up without issue, as the ink is a suspended medium that won't dry out quickly.

What type of ink is this? Is it blendable?

Are the Stellar ink pads good for wet embossing? One comment stated the ink dried fast so that would mean they wouldn't be good for wet embossing?
By:

Hello. Since these are fast-drying inks, they are not ideal for wet embossing. Successful wet embossing requires a slow-drying ink that allows the embossing powder time to adhere before the ink dries.

Can you use alcohol markers with these?
By:

Yes, you can use alcohol markers with most dye ink pads however, you may need to heat set the ink so it is completely dry before coloring. The only Ranger ink to stay away from with alcohol ink markers would be Archival Inks and Embossing Ink Pads.

Can the stellar ink pads be stored end up like the original Simon Herley ink pads? If isn�t mentioned in the videos about the stellar inks, but his old videos mentioned several times that they didn�t need to be stored flat.

How are these inks different than your regular dye inks?
By:

The ink is the same it is the pad that is different - it is now foam instead of felt so tad easier to use and better coverage than the older ones. He said in his youtube that you can use your current reinkers for the colors that have the same color name like prom queen, weeping willow, etc. He is also introducing new colors so they are not in the old line at all. Also the stellar ink bottles now have the color printed on the label so you can visually see what the color is instead of just the name.
