Hi There!! Just wondering if anyone uses Walnut Ink in their scrapbooks!! Or uses it for projects you've stamped on? I just purchased some and would really like to use it...just don't know where to begin? Jan :) snipped-for-privacy@look.ca

and that's the place that makes it. I bought it here at my scrapbook store in town, but it came with no directions...I did find out that you take a few crystals (about a 1/2 tsp) and dilute it in water...then spray it or drop it, or whatever on your paper to age it...I thought it would be awesome for tag art or whatever...and stamp on it etc...

Hi Marion!! If you check in your local scrapbook store and maybe Michael's Arts and Crafts or Joann Crafts, you might find it there...It's pretty cool...I'm going to try it tomorrow and I let you know how it works!! Jan :)

As Jan said, dilute in some water and spray, or dip your paper into. Can also use a paint brush to brush the edges of torn paper to make look "worn" The website for 7 gypies is great. Oh and you can also spray water on your paper then sprinkle some grains of walnut ink on then let dry. Makes a very neat effect.
