The Cloud 9 Interference Ink Pad Crushed Velvet Shimmer by Lisa Horton Crafts is an iridescent hybrid ink designed for projects that need rich purple colour, depth and a warm colour shift depending on the base underneath. Its formula combines dye ink, which helps the colour apply smoothly, with pigment ink, which gives the colour more presence on the surface and helps the shimmer interference effect show more clearly.
What makes the Cloud 9 Interference Ink Pads special is that the same ink does not appear the same on every surface. Crushed Velvet Shimmer gives a deep purple result on light bases, rich and clean, ideal for dramatic or elegant designs. On dark, painted or mixed media surfaces, the interference effect reveals champagne-gold reflections, creating a warmer contrast and a more luxurious finish.
Use it with stamps, stencils, backgrounds and layering techniques when you want a purple ink that gains a second dimension depending on the surface. It works beautifully in elegant cards, wedding projects, fantasy designs, celestial backgrounds, vintage layouts, art journals and mixed media pieces with purple, gold, champagne, black or dark backgrounds.
