The red pigment ink dried on it's own, but the silver pigment ink still transfers the metallic particles days later making it pointless. They're both colorbox. I've tried my oldie hair dryer to see if heat sets it w/ no luck. Any tips? I'm just starting stamping.
How do you set silver pigment ink when rubber stamping?
You really need a hotter heating source.
This is the heat tool I have. It is just an example from JoAnn's, but you can find one at any craft store.

About the only thing I can suggest besides time, is to try a clear embossing powder over it. Have you used embossing powder yet? It's really easy and can give a nice look to your work.

Hi there, I'm not an expert, I'm just a hobby stamper as it sounds like you are...try using an embossing heat gun....available at Michaels or ACMoore or JoAnns. Sometimes Walmart has them or Target, but usually the specialty craft stores. The other answer about the clear embossing powder is an excellent idea! I will try that one myself! Good luck!
