Default Craft Ink and Window Sheets???

I am trying to make a wedding card using white craft ink on a window sheet and it isn't drying. Will it ever dry? It's been a day now. Maybe I should try vellum CS but I love the look of the window sheet with the Floral Bckgrnd on it. I don't have White Staz On maybe that would work?
Help please.

Barbara

I'm not sure what a window sheet is (what am I missing out on--Aaaah!). But if it's slick, then craft ink won't dry on it. You either need to emboss to set the ink or use an ink for slick surfaces like brilliance, stazon or palette (sp?). Maybe someone else knows some other inks that will work.

Hope this helps.

Does anyone know if Palette Hybrid ink would work on transparencies?

Craft ink will never dry on the window sheet. You need to either heat emboss it - be careful not to burn the window sheet - or use the white stazon. It works great!
