Each innovative inkpad holds a carefully curated colour combination, just apply water and watch as the shades separate and bloom before your eyes. Brush, spritz and flick water to create unique colour washes, stencilled and stamped designs. 

From soft dawn clouds and fiery sunsets to swirling nebula and rippling waters - explore 12 ColourBloom shades to bring incredible effects to your papercraft. 

  • Rose petals -  The Summer Bouquet Duet ColourBloom Inkpad from Crafter’s Companion is a rich apricot ink that blooms and reveals shades of yellow and pink when combined with water. Create atmospheric backgrounds to give your cards and papercraft a unique and atmospheric look. 

  • Explore your artistic side - This hybrid, water-based ink is designed to react with water to create magical multi-toned effects. Blend onto watercolour card and mist, flick and brush water to discover exquisite ombre effects. 

  • Evolving shades - There’s so much creative potential in one inkpad. Apply water immediately after application, while the ink is still wet, to achieve a range of different effects. Or, dry with a heat tool before applying water for a strong colour contrast.

  • Stamp and stencil magic - Pair Duet ColourBloom Inkpads with your favourite stamp and stencil designs to give them a new lease of life! Stamp or stencil the ink colour and then apply water to reveal new colours. Apply water with a brush to control the colour interaction, or flick and mist for a more natural, atmospheric effect.

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I start with colouring pencils, markers or watercolours?

Colouring pencils are a great starting point for detail and shading, alcohol markers offer smooth blends, and watercolours create soft washes.

What’s the difference between alcohol markers and water-based markers?

Alcohol markers use alcohol-based ink for smooth, blended colour. Water-based markers use water-based ink, these can be blended with a damp brush for watercolour effects.

What type of paper should I use for my chosen colouring materials?

Use smooth marker paper or card for alcohol markers, lightly textured paper for colouring pencils and watercolour paper for painting or blending with water.

How do I blend colours and add shading to my colouring?

Start with lighter shades and gradually layer darker tones to create depth and shadows. Soften the transitions where your shades meet, keeping some areas lighter for contrast.

How do I stop my stamped outlines from smudging when I colour them?

Use alcohol-proof stamping ink with alcohol markers and waterproof stamping ink with watercolours. Allow your stamped image to dry fully before adding colour.
