Dew Drops, Stampin’ Up! color comparison
I had several people ask me about the Versamagic Dew Drops I bought from Eclectic Paperie. These dew drops are versatile fast drying Chalk inks that have a soft matte look. They are archival safe and acid free. That’s what the package said.
I stamped all 36 colors on Confetti white and try to match up the colors with our Stampin’ Up! craft inks. Twice I couldn’t match it at all. I guess our retired colors mauve mist and mint melody would have matched with those colors. Twice I used classic ink.
The VersaMagic Dew Drops aren’t super fast drying as the package says. You will still have to hit it with a heat gun or set aside for a minute or two (proof: check the dark blue ink….smeared with me writing next to it ….being a lefty and all).
I love the way they stamp though. No bubbling and perfect coverage. They are wonderful to use on acrylic and rubber stamps. I am glad I have them.

Oh, this is great Beate!!! Thanks so much for compiling it!!!
What a wonderful, and generous thing for you to do!! TFS.
I’m a lefty too, or cackhanded as my dad calls me! You would think that I would be used to being lefthanded by now, but I still smear things when I don’t concentrate, lol!
thanks so much for taking the time to do that! you are a sweetheart! I need to do that with my Clearsnap chalk inks…
love those, too…such pretty colors with the chalk inks!!
Look at you go! Comparing all the inks for us! You are something!
Thanks Beate!! I had been quite curious about these after seeing them at a store the other day but didn’t get a chance to ask about them because my 18 month old was getting a bit bratty and we needed to leave soon. Thanks for the comparison!

You Bad Bad Girl! You now have me wanting to go ahead and get those too…lol
Thanks for the comparison though, it will be a great help when I do go and get them so that I can use them with the SU inks too.
thanks for doing this Beate! I am in love with this ink, too
What a great idea! I just got my first two dewdrops to play with!
36 colors???WOW!! spent a little moolah!!! lol!! I stamped with the “3″ that I got and dipped them in Irridescent Ice EP and heat set and the colors are WOW!! There are at least 20 that I want but at $2.50 a pop I think I had better slip them in a few at a time!! AHAAHAHA!! Thanks for comparison chart. I wondered about a bunch of them matching. You Da BEST!!
Wohoo! Beate! I’ve been trying to resist these goodies but I’m going to succumb! Thanks so much for providing us with a color chart!!! As always, you rock!
Great chart…thanks Beate!
Thanks for the great chart!
Thank you so much for this! It really helps.
Great Idea! I have been trying to buy ink that matches the SU colors and this will really help.
