Took some pics:
Approx. 500 white, 250 red, 260 green, 450 black, 300 purple, 110 "dyed" yellow, 50 orig. orange, 60 "dyed" dark gray.
Think I will dye some light Blue for $5000 chip. I think using black ink turns out better then white.

Looks good. Can you give some details on the stamper you used (price, where to buy, etc...). |

Very nice work! I agree that using the dark non-opaque inks produce a crisper image. I like the font of the numbers you used as well.
Viva Faux Clay!!

Purchased the number stamp at "Archiver's" Craft store, it was sold with a letter stamp $25; Office Max, Jo-Ann fabrics and Michaels Craft Store did not have a number stamp, I used Jet Balck & Cotton White Staz-On ink from Jo-Ann Fabrics at $8 a pad.
I used Rit powder Golden Yellow, and Pearl Grey from Jo-Ann's. Put 100 white chips in a bucket, mixed the dye in a cup of warm water, boiled about half gallon of water, poured in the bucket with the chips , stirred in dye for about 5 min. let stand for a couple hours in the hot water, stirring every 15 min. or so.
I think the yellow turned out really nice while the grey was to dark and spotty, maybe mix in some white with it. ?????

Looking real nice. Those yellows look awesome. Have you used your dyed chips yet? Any rub-off or discoloration?
Thanks.
