Review by April

Any time I get the chance to try out a new product from Ranger I am in heaven! I am a huge of fan of Ranger products and always feel inspired when creating with them. Ranger's personal mission is to provide a fun, creative and successful experience for artists and crafters, and they continuously achieve this by providing high quality innovative products worldwide. Ranger has been the recipient of many achievement awards in the industry and they have an outstanding educational support program. At the last Craft and Hobby Association show in February, Ranger introduced their new line of Adirondack Pigment Inks and the new Inkssentials White Opaque Pen. Since I already use white opaque pens quite frequently and also own several of the coordinating pigment ink pad colors in the ranger paint dabbers and dye inks, let's just say both of these products intrigued me and I was anxious to get my hands on them.

I received the following for this review: one Inkssentials Opaque White Pen, two Adirondack Brights pigment ink pads in Sunset Orange and Watermelon, two Adirondack Lights pigment ink pads in Shell Pink and Snow Cap, and one Adirondack Earthtones pigment ink pad in Pitch Black. The Inkssentials White Opaque Pen is filled with a creamy and bright, white opaque pigment ink. This pen is acid free, waterproof, light fast, and fade resistant. Crafters can use the Inkssentials pen on a variety of surfaces including, cardstock, paper, wood, metal, plastic, and polymer clay prior to baking. You can even use it over projects painted with Adirondack Acrylic Paint Dabbers and Distress Crackle Paint. The pen also has a comfortable cushy grip holder and a cap that clicks into place to prevent it from easily falling off. The Adirondack Pigment Inks are actually available in 18 coordinating colors of 6 Lights, 6 Brights and 6 Earthtones plus Pitch Black and Snow Cap. I personally thought the Watermelon, Shell Pink, and Sunset Orange that I received for the review were gorgeous! All of the new pigment inks coordinate with Ranger's entire Adirondack product line and are also available in half ounce reinkers. A pigment ink pad has a slightly longer drying period as it air dries on matte papers and other surfaces and leaves behind a vibrant and rich, opaque color. Because the pigment ink is juicier, these are the perfect choice for embossing! According to the directions, they can also be heat set on glossy paper, vellum, shrink plastic, metal and glass. Besides the incredible color they add to your projects, my favorite thing about Adirondack pigment ink pads is the case they come in. Each case comes with a tight fitting lid and another plastic cover on the inside directly over the ink pad itself to help keep it from drying out. Best of all, all of the cases are stackable and are actually made to fit neatly together when stacked to prevent them from falling over. You can find the entire line of coordinating Adirondack products, as well as projects, and fabulous tips and techniques online at rangerink.com.

For my first project, I created my own background paper by blending the Watermelon, Sunset Orange and Shell Pink inks on a white sheet of 12x12 cardstock. I turned each pad upside down and simply ran it across the cardstock and overlapped the colors. I was extremely pleased with the final results because it looked like I had spent a considerable amount of time painting a background. I used the Pitch Black ink pad to color the chipboard swirls, and also the edges of the cardstock and the photograph. I started out with pale pink chipboard letters, turned them over and pressed them into the Watermelon ink pad and then let them dry. I didn't worry about not covering each letter entirely because I thought it looked cool to have little bits of the pale pink show through. I also pressed the scalloped chipboard piece lightly into the Shell Pink ink pad and then again in the Watermelon ink pad. To complete the layout, I used the white Inkssentials pen to add journaling on the cardstock and directly on the photograph, and also added some doodle dots on the black cardstock and inked chipboard swirls. To dress it up I added a few flowers and little bit of bling.

I love using black cardstock and as soon as I saw how well the Adirondack Lights Snow Cap ink pad worked, I immediately turned to my new butterfly stamps! I pressed the clear butterfly stamps into the Snow Cap ink pad and then stamped the images onto black cardstock. I thought the finished images were beautiful and I've never had a white ink pad that worked so well. I trimmed around each butterfly and then adhered them to my layout. For the 3-D butterfly on the bottom, I simply cut out two of the same butterflies attached a jeweled brad in the middle of them and then placed 3-D glue dots in between the wings. I inked the edges of the kraft cardstock with the Pitch Black ink pad to help coordinate with the black and white butterflies, and then added some doodle dots with the white Inkssentials pen.

Since the pigment pads are supposed to be perfect for embossing, I wanted to try it out for myself on my third project. I used a clear owl stamp, pressed it into the Watermelon ink pad and then stamped the image onto a piece of patterned paper. The pigment ink provided the stamp with complete coverage, and since the pigment ink stays wet longer than other ink pads, I had plenty of time to cover it with the embossing powder and ensure a great image turnout. After heat setting the embossed image, I quickly realized it looked stunning and didn't need another round of embossing powder...it was done! I also inked the edges of the paper around the owl and embossed them as well to give the edges a glossy distressed look. I then moved on to repeat the same process only this time I was embossing a chipboard swirl. I have to say that I really don't bother to emboss very often, but after seeing the results of embossing with these pigment ink pads I guarantee I will be embossing a lot more! To finish off the card, I stamped the "What a Hoot" and inked the cardstock edges using the Watermelon ink pad, and then added faux stitching around the edge using the white inkssentials pen.

I am truly impressed with Ranger's new pigment ink pads! I love how juicy they are and to me they end up looking more like you used paint rather than the usual thin ink coverage. Even though they do require a bit more drying time, I didn't mind at all because I loved the effect they achieved and the colors were rich and absolutely true to what you see on the outside of the lid. I liked how easy it was to blend the colors even when they were in different color palettes. As for the Opaque Inkssentials pen, I would have to say it is the best white opaque pen I have used to date. There are other white opaque pens I frequently use, however I often have to stop and shake them or tap them in order to keep the ink flowing freely. With this pen I didn't have to do that and it didn't leave open spaces or areas I needed to go over again like when you use a pen that's not top quality. I experimented by using the pen for both doodling and journaling and I thought it worked beautifully when writing directly on photos. I'm looking forward to playing with more of the Lights, Brights, and Earthtone pigment ink pad colors and would definitely recommend both the ink pads and the Inkssentials opaque pen to all crafters and scrapbookers!

Review by Andrea

What's rectangular, colorful and squishy? Well Ranger's new pigment ink pads of course! Talk about perfect timing, Ranger has it with the introduction of the opaque and juicy pads in 20 colors which include Snow Cap and Pitch Black. If you're an ink lover, run to your local scrapbook or stamp store to get every color you can afford!

Continuing with the Adirondack color palette, Ranger has 6 tonal color sets in a "light", "bright" and "earthtone" just waiting to be used for any crafting project. Each pad will give complete color coverage over just about any surface. Since pigment ink is made to stay moist longer, this ink is terrific for heat embossing. If not embossed, the ink turns to a matte finish when it's dry which is a great visual clue. When using this ink on a non-porous surface, just heat set to dry the ink.

The pads have a raised foam surface that holds the ink above the case for easy direct-to-paper applications and to keep your fingers as clean as possible. The cases are black plastic making it a clear distinction from the dye ink pads which are a light tan color. The label on the top of the case is the color of the ink and the name is printed in clear block letters too. The bottom label states the color name and features of the ink. There is a clear thin plastic inner cap over the pad to seal out the air as much as possible during storage. When the cover is removed, the clear inner cover comes right off to expose the pad.

The first question that I had was "just how opaque is this ink?" Well, VERY opaque! I used the pad in a direct-to-Grungeboard technique for the flourishes and letters on the following layout. All it took for complete coverage was one application! It was really amazing since there was not an overabundance of ink on the surface as one might think would be needed in this case. Not so! I added some clear embossing powder just to seal the letters and it came out great! I loved using the White Opaque Pen to outline the letters. It worked very well over the cardstock without skipping and dried almost immediately. There were no "ink globs" either, making it just the right detail for the black-based page.

This next page is a simple demonstration of stamping the white pigment ink directly on a photo. On the close-up, you can see the detail and opacity of the stamp. There was very little slipping and sliding of the stamp on the glossy surface and I found the ink to have a lot of stability once in contact with the surface.

I couldn't resist creating a card using Robin Beam's Bandanna Technique introduced on her blog and at the Winter CHA Ranger booth. By stamping with the Pitch Black pigment ink and using the Cranberry on the chipboard flowers in a direct-to-chipboard technique, the color saturation was immediate and solid. The Opaque White Pen worked as a fantastic doodle tool for highlighting some of the stamping and custom doodles. So much fun!

I completely LOVE this ink! I've found so many uses for it since it offers such complete coverage in great colors. The Pitch Black and Snow Cap are welcome additions to my ink stash. If you're looking for the perfect ink to stamp in your scrapbooks with, this is it. No embossing required because the ink is archivally safe as is right off the pad. An added benefit - it can be washed from your stamps with a water-based cleaner! Great job Ranger, I love it! All you need is to add the rest of the Adirondack color line now!

Long-known for quality and innovation in their products, Ranger continues to develop new ways to wow us. Their latest release in the Adirondack line is the new Pigment Ink Pads. These water based inks come with a raised foam pad and a fully removable lid. This allows easy inking of stamps and also facilitates using the pads in direct-to-surface techniques

The Adirondack color palette includes a coordinating light, bright, and earthtone shade of the same color, allowing for amazing shading and depth in stamped projects. There are six families of color (blue, yellow, green, purple, red and pink) plus pitch black and snow cap white for a total of 20 colors. Not only can you use these inks in their color families, but the tones (lights, brights and earthtones) also all coordinate. The ink is an opaque pigment ink that air dries on matte surfaces and quickly heat sets on other non-porous surfaces like glossy paper, vellum, metal, glass and plastic. It has a slightly longer drying time, even on matte surfaces, to allow ample time for embossing. These Adirondack pigment inks also coordinate with the other products in Ranger’s Adirondack line (dye inks, alcohol inks, paint dabbers and color washes) creating a splendid, coordinated line for stamping and inking.

I received five different pigment ink pads: snow cap white, pitch black, denim, terra cotta, and clover. Inside the case lid, the pad has a clear plastic cover which will help keep the pad from drying out between uses. This is a nice touch. The cases stack and interlock, so no more tumbling ink pads in your ink drawer! Another nice touch!

My first "test" for these new opaque pigment inks was to see how well they would cover a dark, shiny paper. I had some pieces from a puzzle swap and I needed to finish the frame, which was a bright red paper. I covered it with a generous coat of the Pitch Black pigment ink and used my heat tool to set the ink. As the ink went from wet to dry, it changed from shiny to matte, so it was very easy to see what was dry and what was not. Also as the ink set, it spread out a little to cover the tiny dots of red that were showing through. Although the coverage was great, I did add a light second coat and I am extremely happy with the outcome. I then stamped over the black using the snow cap white ink. Fantastic! I used both acrylic and rubber stamps on the frame. Some of the acrylic stamps left a little ridge from the vacuum that can occur when they come off the paper. But over all, I give these inks high marks for coverage, even over the darkest base colors.

In these images, you can see what the red looked like before and the black after.

And here is the finished puzzle.

I love to Blog-hop and while doing so, came upon a great technique using the pigment inks. After completely covering the paper (I found that glossy cardstock worked best) with ink, spritz it with water and dab at the ink/water with a cloth until you like the results. I created the background for this card that way, using clover ink. For the center piece, I stamped onto black glossy cardstock with the clover pigment ink, then again on another paper using eggplant pigment ink. I cut out the second image and pop-dotted it over the first. Not only does this ink give great coverage, it’s very versatile in creating different textures.

Matt just celebrated his eighteenth birthday and Basic Grey’s Cupcake collection seemed to be the perfect papers to use for this layout. Ranger’s denim and terra cotta pigment inks coordinate very well with this collection. Using denim ink and the above described technique, I created the mat layer behind the photo. I inked up the grungeboard numbers with denim ink and used Ranger’s new Inkssentials opaque white pen to draw the design. This new pen works better than any of the other white pens I own. Unlike others, there is no open space in the white line. The ink flows well and the pen makes perfect dots. Thanks, Ranger! I also used the denim ink to stamp the birthday cakes and the flourishes. The Happy Birthday element was stamped using the terra cotta pigment ink and colored with Prismacolor pencils.

Ranger continues to add new innovative products to their line. The new pigment inks add an essential element to the Adirondack line – supplying opaque pigment inks to the other products to provide the crafter with yet another tool to perfect their creations. The new Inkssentials opaque white pen fills a niche that has been empty. There are many other white pens out there, but for me they have all had problems with ink flow. I found the Ranger pen ready and reliable when I needed it. I think it’s a must-have in my pen drawer. I highly recommend both of these products as "must haves" in your ink and pen drawers!

When I see the name Ranger I know it means quality. Their extensive product line has proven itself time and time again in addition to winning several awards of achievement in the crafting industry. With the introduction of the new Adirondack Pigment Inks and Inkssentials White Pen, Ranger has once again proven to be a leader in quality and excellence.

The Adirondack Pigment Inks are acid free and archival safe. They are also divided into three categories; Lights, Brights, and Earthtones which coordinate with the entire Adirondack product line. Each category consists of six unique colors providing you with eighteen coordinating colors plus Pitch Black and Snow Cap.

You may be wondering why you should choose a pigment ink over a dye ink, so let me try to explain. Both dye and pigment inks are water-based but because the pigment ink is thicker and more opaque than dye ink it will leave you with a more vibrant color and one that is truer to the color you see on the pad; while a dye based ink is popular because of its quick drying time (which is almost instantaneously), once the pigment inks are dry they are more resistant to water than their dye based counterparts. Pigment inks also provide more versatility than dye inks. Because of the slower drying time, you can easily emboss with pigment inks and when heat set they are the perfect choice for glossy paper, vellum, mica, shrink plastic, metal and glass. Pigment inks are more light and heat stable, making them the perfect choice when choosing an ink for scrapbooking, or any project that will be displayed.

The Adirondack Pigment inks come with a completely removable lid and a clear plastic liner. Because the liner needs to always be replaced with the lid, I like to permanently adhere the plastic liner to the lid so they are never separated. I do this by simply using a couple of glue dots or a glue gun.

From the Adirondack Pigment ink collection I was given the following colors to work with:

• Brights – Sail Boat Blue and Purple Twilight
• Lights – Juniper and Snow Cap
• Earth – Pitch Black

While all of these colors were beautiful and true to their name, I was most intrigued by the Inkssenstials Opaque White Pen. I have tried many different white pens on the market today, but none of them have worked to my satisfaction. Maybe I am just being too picky, but I don't think so. For the most part, white pens, when applied, will bleed or will be pretty and white, but as they dry the color fades and leaves me very disappointed. As I began testing the pen on various dark colors I was pleasantly surprised. The brightness of the white stayed true from the time it was applied until it dried. I could hardly believe that I had found a white pen that did not bleed and stayed true to its color!

As I began using the Adirondack Pigment inks on my layout I found that the ink dried quick enough that I did not have to worry about smearing the colors as I worked. The ink pads were very juicy and provided ample coverage on the cardstock along with remaining very true to the color I saw on the pad. I used the Sail Boat Blue, Purple Twilight, and Juniper to stamp my flowers and I used a sponge to ink the edges of the striped cardstock with Juniper and Sail Boat Blue. I decided to use some Crackle Paint on my title and once it was dry I swiped Juniper and Sail Boat Blue over the paint to highlight the cracks. I did use a heat tool to set the Pigment ink on the Crackle Paint. Once I was sure that the letters were completely dry I used the Inkssentials Opaque White Pen to outline the letters.

Once I had placed all of my elements on my layout I then went back and added some white highlights around the flowers and scallop frame with the Inkssentials pen. I can tell you, I was very impressed with how the Adirondack Pigment inks and Inkssentials White Pen worked with the different elements on my page.

I have a binder that I keep indexed all of my stamps, inks, embossing powders, etc. This binder has been sitting on my shelf next to my stamps, with a plain white label on the spine for way too long. I decided to make a bright fun cover and spine for this book that holds so many creative tools and ideas. I stamped the flourish in the Adirondack Pitch Black pigment ink and embossed the image. It worked perfectly. I then used a sponge to ink the edges of the labels and used the Inkssenstials White pen to add highlights. Once my cover was finished I decided to add some doodles on the edge of the scalloped paper and around the square sticker. My binder now has a beautiful facelift.

Finding a white ink pad that does not blend into dark backgrounds is hard to find. I love this technique but it is most impressive when you can get a crisp white image on a dark background. When I stamped the butterflies onto black cardstock using the Adirondack Pigment Snow Cap ink the color absolutely popped against the dark background!

I used a cotton ball to apply chalks to the images then lightly brushed some Pearl-ex pigment powder on top of the chalked images. The crisp white image that was achieved by using this pigment ink is what makes this card shine.

Ranger has once again provided the art community with more great products. If you are a scrapbooker, stamper, altered arts artist, or hobbyist then you need to add the Adirondack Pigment Inks and Inkssenstial Opaque White Pen to your list of supplies. It will be hard to find another product that surpasses this company in quality and excellence!

Thank you Ranger for providing me with these products. Now I am off to pick up a couple extra Inkssenstial Opaque White pens and add more colors to my collection of Adirondack Pigment Inks!

Review by Stephanie

Ok, I’ll admit it – I’m a Ranger addict. I love every Ranger product made and the newest ink pads are absolutely no exception. They are so totally different from the Distress ink pads as they are extremely juicy and this gives you so many more options to play!

I received five different ink pads this month: Pitch Black, Snowcap, Peach Bellini, Eggplant, and Baby Blue. Let me tell you, the colors are true to their names. There is nothing worse, in my opinion, than purchasing an ink pad for its name and getting a totally different shade than you were expecting. Well, Ranger commits and delivers – the colors are awesome.

I also received an Inkessentials white opaque pen. I have been searching for a really good white pen and I was looking forward to working with this one.

I love making cards and wanted to create a card using as many of the new colors as I could. Using the Goldfish stamp, I was able to accomplish this quite easily. As I wanted to create a watercolor effect, I stamped the design onto watercolor paper using Pitch Black ink. After embossing the image, I used a water brush to color in my image. I finished it off with some Stickles.

Since my previous card turned out well, I decided to try out the Snowcap. I have long wanted a nice white ink pad and was very pleased with the resulting birthday card. I stamped my design on cardstock, then embossed it. I truly had a nice embossed image – no skips. As I previously indicated, the ink pads are extremely juicy. Since I had some time issues, I had to walk away from my image for a few minutes. Upon returning I found it was still wet enough to emboss without a problem. I sewed my stamped image to vellum which I had adhered to cardstock. A small portion of the image was stamped in Pitch Black ink and adhered to my card with a brad and Eggplant was used around the edges. I used the white pen to doodle and write "My Friend". I love this pen – very fluid, very white, and minimal skips. No other white pen I have used works this well.

My layout entitled Game Day uses Pitch Black ink to give the layout some added dimension. I would recommend inking and putting your pieces aside for a few minutes before adhering to your layout because the ink does remain wet for a few minutes.
