Thank you, I'm going to try those Fantastix pencils with my activator. I'm a scientist and fabric artist and formulated my own activator, Sew Nature's Activator. I've been teaching Inktense for a few years now, but haven't tried all the methods you showed, thanks again for the video!
I think I neglected to mention that this particular coloring book gives permission to use for personal use or teaching. It’s always good to check copyright rules 😅 It’s usually fine to just try things, just not to sell or post publicly 😅
You could use washi tape or painter’s tape on your palettes (just an inch or so) to “add your friction” when using the pencil on palettes! The frugal crafter shared that and I’ve never gone back. Now, I primarily use mine on paper but, I’d assume that would also save you some scrubbing on the palette itself as well 😊
I have found them at JoAnn Fabrics near the rubber stamping supplies, and also Amazon. I can’t remember if I said this in the video but they come with two tip types, bullet and brush. I use the brush tip, more pointy.
You aren’t supposed to have to, but people have mixed results depending on the type of fabric, and whether or not it has sizing on it still, or whether or not every speck of Inktense got activated. so it’s best to test a sample if possible. 😅
I have the 72 pack of Inktense pencils, is that what you are referring to? I started with 12 and since they blend well I was able to do a lot with those too.
@@onthetrailcreations8638 No, I think talk to text has been messing with me for a few days lol when I was asking is what is your set up under your fabric? Like what do you put under your fabric to pad it or protect it? I see something in the video I just don’t know what it is.
They are used like watercolor pencils, and I explained the difference between them and actual watercolors. But yes, I could have been more clear that they are made of ink. 😅
