I have been 'out of the loop' for a long while, but always used to ink the edges of my projects with chalk inks. I liked the fact that they dried quickly, and so whilst I did invest in some distress inks at some point, found that they stayed 'wet' for too long and were less suitable as well as being transparent rather than opaque.

My old cats eye chalk inks have dried up, but nobody seems to sell them any more. What are the alternatives these days, any thoughts please?
