Fluid Chalk Stamping Refills Needed

 

Colorbox Fluid Chalk Cat's Eyes ~ Primary Refills Needed

I have a small Cat's Eyes chalk stamp pad set but Clearsnap discontinued them in 2019. I've searched for chalk refills and only found a handful of colors I don't need on Ebay. I thought that surely another company made chalk stamping ink but I have not seen any. I've only seen liquid chalk markers.

Do you know of a source or do you have any ideas on how I could stir up my own?

I like the little marquis-shaped pads because they are easy to use like blenders for tight, small spaces or quick card stock edge coloring. If I can't refill them with chalk, I thought about just re-inking them with my regular inks to salvage them.

Thanks for your help,

Sandi

Top Ebook Topic Ideas in 2021: What do readers want?

Some key points are:

Successful ebooks have a narrow focus. For the reader there’s a clear promise about what they’ll learn or how they’ll benefit. 

If there’s something you know a lot about there are almost certainly people out there looking to learn.

Bloggers, it could be that you have a lot of existing material that you’ve published on your blog. Pull all of this together, organise and edit it so that it has a very specific focus, give it a snappy title

No matter what you learn and what you decide to publish, remember the most important tip that Farah shares:

If your ebook lives up to the promise you’ll get great reviews, recommendations from your readers and more sales.
