We are at the end of our Diamine Inkvent Calendar. I want to say a huge thank you to T for providing me with her lovely swatches. Today’s Diamine ink is Best Wishes a shimmering and sheening ink. It appears to be a dark green ink with a massive amount of red sheen and green shimmers.
I pulled out my green swatches from my collection.
Enchanted Woods was the only green ink I had that contained green shimmers.
Upon further inspection, the shimmers looks more like a silver-green.
I narrowed down my choices to three ink colors that had no shimmers.
Black Ivy, which also has a massive amount of sheen, was from last year’s calendar. There’s a dark blue underlying color in Black Ivy which makes it lean a bit towards a teal blue color. Sea Turtle is a true green ink color with lovely red sheen. River of Fire is a green ink color that leans a bit towards blue as I can see some blue in the underlying color.
Yes. Best Wishes made it to my wish list.
