What is Ink Blending?

Ink Blending is when you blend different ink colours with a blending tool to create a seamless ombre effect. You can use different ink mediums with this technique like stamp inks, Distress Oxides, or Distress Inks. There are several ink blending tools to try. You can use dry foam pads, sponges, like Blender Smoothies, or Ranger brand mini ink blending tools like the kind Janette uses in the video.
