Favorite thing would have to be the possibilities! Dying ribbon and stamping with Distress Stains are high on my enjoyment list :)

I absolutely love DS - they seem to end up on every project! I have played with them lots but it's fabulous to have watched a video which shows me that's there's so much more I could be doing with them! Loved the marbling! Thanks Tim (and Mario!) as always for your inspiration!

Corrrrr... I can't honestly pick just one thing I love about the Stains... cos they are just perfect! I love the way they can be mixed with a light colour paint to make custom colour paints, the way they mix together and don't go muddy, the way that I can colour up trims and bindings, the way I can cover a whole 12" square sheet in about 3 seconds flat... the cute little bottles, perfect size for inky paws... oh and the Picket Fence! Oh lala! I am in heaven with that one! Oh and finally... the fact that I have a Distress Pad AND a Distress Stain in each colour... yum!! Thank you for sharing the video... and the photo of those coloured trims has me all a-drooling!

Thanks for sharing this Wonderfull video with us Tim!
I saw some great techniques, that i have to try out myself..!
Love the effect of putting water first and then distress stain on a tag, so cool!
And the trimmings, soooo much fun, i have a whole bunch of ribbons and lace, i want to color now, great tip!
Stamping an image with distress stain, using different colours and then using a water pen...?? That is just...don;t know what to say..too much fun????
And let's not talk about picket fence...that little cutie is amazing, love the marbel effect..see some underwater projects with that one!
