Since the Stampin\u2019 Blends are alcohol-based inks, they will dry out much faster than a water based- marker when exposed to air. \u00a0That is why the tops are extremely tight. \u00a0When you are closing your markers, make sure you hear a \u201cclick\u201d which will assure you that your marker is closed correctly. \u00a0You may even want to press the end that you closed down on the table to be extra careful. <br> <br> The caps have an interior well which is designed to keep the marker wet as long as possible. \u00a0Make certain you have inserted the marker tip straight-on into the top. \u00a0If not, you may mash the tip of the marker and blunt the tip. \u00a0So, take time to close your markers correctly. <br> <br> Do not leave your markers open for long periods of time. \u00a0When coloring an image in which I am switching colors, I slide the tip loosely into the top case so they are not exposed to the air when I know I will be using that color several times. <br> <br> There are two ends to your Stampin\u2019 Blends. \u00a0One end is a brush type nib and the other end is more like a pen to create find lines. \u00a0There is a white line on each of the caps. \u00a0One has a thicker line which goes to the brush type end and the thin line goes to the thin, pen type end. \u00a0Make certain you are adding the correct top. \u00a0There is also a picture on each end of the marker showing the thick and the thin ends of the marker. <br> <br> When storing your Stampin\u2019 Blends, make certain they are stored horizontally. \u00a0The barrel is rectangular shaped to keep them from rolling and helps keep them from rolling away. <br> <br> By taking good care of your Stampin&#8217; Blends, they will have a much longer life.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Taking good care of your Stampin&#8217; Blends is of utmost importance if you love them as much as I do.
