Inkvent Day #18: Diamine Subzero

Do you see this label? I’m doing the happy-dance at the suggested ink color and it says shimmer. Breathe in. Breathe out.

Lots of shimmer here!

I see some blue metallics swirling around inside my bottle.

I have to say this ink color brings me so much joy! It sure brightens up the page in my journal.

A closer look shows quite a bit of bright blue metallic shimmer. Gorgeous!

In addition to the shimmer, there is quite a bit of shading.

There’s a tiny bit of red sheen.

Subzero produces a beautiful ink wash. The yellow from Candle Light bled into my turquoise ink.

I went through my swatch cards as this Subzero color reminded me of another ink color I have without all the shimmers. Birmingham Glassmith was almost a perfect match.

I would say this is a bright turquoise color with lots of light metallic blue shimmers and a smidgen of red sheen. A gorgeous ink color with quite a bit of personality. It’s another favorite from the calendar and on my wish list.
