    Love Versa Mark! I probably use it more than any other one ink as I love to emboss. VersaFine Onyx black is a favorite for sentiments and Momento Tuxedo Black for coloring with copics.

    For general Stamping I use the Stampin Up inks the most. I do love distress inks too though because there are a lot of fun techniques you can do with them.

    Choose a favorite? Impossible. Lol But I find myself reaching for the unicorn white ink all the time as I’ve found it really covers the best.

  20. SJ says:

    Distress and chalk inks!

  21. Jackie Love says:

    Hero art shadow ink but I am dying to try the memento luxe inks.

  22. Christy Beans says:

    Distress inks… I just got a great deal on Dew Drops so I bought the entire color line of Memento to try them out… but I’m really waiting for an awesome sale on Hero Arts Shadow Inks. My fingers itch to try those out every time I watch your videos! =)

  23. Elaine says:

    I always love to hear what others are using — I regularly use Veramark, Chalk Inks and Memento catseyes. My favourite ink, however for quality stamping, is Versafine — love the results. For embossing powders, I tend to use clear, gold, silver, black and white. I’ll need to get out my watercolour pencils as I forgot how easy and gorgeous they colour things. Thanks for your info. You do a fantastic job at explaining things!!!!

  24. izolda says:

    Distresses+HA+Memento Luxe. These three guys are must haves for me now (the last two you got me to try, then love, then buy the whole palette lol)

  25. taradid says:

    Distress Inks & Ranger Archivals (really loving the new shades by Wendy Vecchi!).

  26. Erum says:

    I love Ranger archival and of course can not live without the distress inks! I have yet to buy the seasonal colours, collecting them one at a time 🙂

  27. mary says:

    My favorite inks are Versamark, Versafine, Distress and Archival. I’ve recently purchased the Hero Arts Neon Cubes, Unicorn Pigment pad and Soft Granite shadow pad. I’m really pleased with them. The Memento Luxe and Mama Elephant pigments and Hero Arts Shadow inks are on my wish list.

    As always, Jennifer, you continue to inspire and educate me. Thank you and thanks to Ranger, Mama Elephant and Hero Arts for the opportunity to win some awesome prizes. =^..^=

  28. Eve Gomi says:

    Avery elle has some new pigment inks out, how would you compare them to the one from mama elephant? which brand you like better???

  33. Amber P says:

    My favorite ink pads so far have been the PTI inks and HA Shadow inks. I only have a few of the shadow inks, but I love the variety of colors available! Need more moo-lah to shop with for inks! LOL 🙂

  34. Cheryl I says:

    Distress ink .

  35. Carol W. says:

    Not sure I have a favorite. I own a few from Tim Holtz’s Distress ink collection (which I really like); a few from Memento and all of Color Theory from Studio Calico. Thank you for the awesome videos – there are so many various kinds of inks, so hard to decide. ~ Carol W. workmanscraps at gmail dot com

    As much as I love Distress Inks, I have to say that it’s a VersaMark pad that is always closest to hand.
