It will brighten it somewhat, but not a much as the glaze. The other thing the glaze does is that it seals your work. If you don't have the glaze though, this is definitely worth trying.Dianne Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09463606037233590184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7970618056800479159.post-41303327528009495682021-10-25T07:58:35.360-07:002021-10-25T07:58:35.360-07:00Hello, you do not have to use distress glaze.

The newer Tim Holtz embossing glazes are an embossing powder, and also amazing, but a completely different product.Dianne Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09463606037233590184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7970618056800479159.post-67851144937422705622021-07-17T10:15:47.861-07:002021-07-17T10:15:47.861-07:00Hi Dianne, Your cards are beautiful!

So if I'm understanding what you used on the glossy paper, it was alcohol ink. that is a very pretty look also. But for this technique above, I was using Distress Oxide ink. The Distress Oxide soaks into the paper, so it mostly won't rub off when you buff. It's completely different than alcohol ink (which is also fun to use). You can see some information on alcohol ink here https://backporchatolympia.blogspot.com/2017/06/fly-high-butterfly.html. You can see some general information about Distress Oxides here https://backporchatolympia.blogspot.com/2018/03/distress-oxides-overview.html. The post here that you commented on is about using the glaze over Distress Oxides, which does give a look a little bit like alcohol ink. I hope that helps!Dianne Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09463606037233590184noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7970618056800479159.post-52372686463414417102020-09-11T10:57:47.674-07:002020-09-11T10:57:47.674-07:00I love your backgrounds and your tutorials are soo...I love your backgrounds and your tutorials are soooo helpful. I’m new at the alcohol ink ... so have bought some along with heavy weight paper from Tim . It is some glossy, and loved the look OG dipping and drying, but when I’m done and tried to buff off as you suggested most all the ink and Variations came off.... some was still there but not much! What am I doing wrong? It didn’t come off the heavy duty card stock that was a matte finish Christy @ csrhoades50@hotmail.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05393364768238050261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7970618056800479159.post-91234623204588471422020-08-31T10:57:38.008-07:002020-08-31T10:57:38.008-07:00Thanks so much!
