Video - Tim Holtz Distress Stains
Ranger's Creative Director and Signature Artist Tim Holtz has created a great new video that explains pretty much everything you ever wanted to know about Distress Stain, including the new opaque white Picket Fence Stain!
Check out his video to learn some awesome tips for getting the most out of your Distress Stains, and be sure to visit Tim's blog to see close-up photos of the techniques demonstrated!
That's such an awesome video. I'm sure it's one I will refer back to several times. Tim does such a great job of showing us how to use Ranger products. Now to get my hands on the white picket fence stain!! I can hardly wait - of course I'll need a few (or lots) of the new colors out! LOL Luv this stuff! Thanks...

Does it color grunge board well? I am having a hard time finding something easy to use that will put color in grunge board, especially the already textured grunge board. I can get color on the higher parts of it but it takes a lot to get it into the lower areas of the textured grunge board.

The video is great - as always - and I NEED all the colours - I only have about 6 or 7, though I do have picket fence, which is as fab as Tim says....

He did a great job... as usual!! The stains are easy peasy and so fun to use!

I just watched the video (don't usually do that b/c it takes up too much time) and boy was it worth it! Fantastic to see him stamp with Distress Stains and then watch him go over parts with a waterbrush. Thanks for sharing! Distress Stains just moved up to the top of my buy list :-).

Great video. I saw it on Tim's blog yesterday. Awesome product. I'm loving everything I've done with it. Can't wait for my picket fence to get here.

wow, here I was thinking that I wouldn't really *need* any stains, since I have so many distress inks....but now I am questioning that line of thought, lol....

This is such a quick way to get the colors down on paper and then spritz on the water. Picket Fence adds a lovely painterly effect as well as opening up even more options for blending.
