The Cloud 9 Interference Ink Pad Charcoal Gold Shimmer by Lisa Horton Crafts is an iridescent hybrid ink designed for projects that need a dark neutral colour with a warm golden shift. Its formula combines dye ink, which helps the colour apply smoothly, with pigment ink, which gives the colour more presence on the surface and helps the shimmer interference effect show more clearly.
What makes the Cloud 9 Interference Ink Pads special is that the same ink does not appear the same on every surface. Charcoal Gold Shimmer gives a deep charcoal result on light bases, ideal when you want a dark detail without using pure black. On dark, painted or mixed media surfaces, the interference effect reveals golden reflections, creating a warmer, richer and more striking finish.
Use it with stamps, stencils, backgrounds and layering techniques when you want a dark ink that gains a golden dimension over deeper bases. It works beautifully in vintage, steampunk, masculine, celestial, grunge, Halloween and mixed media projects, as well as elegant cards with black, charcoal, kraft, bronze or gold details.
