Gina K Lemon Drop is very clear, neutral yellow. I have PTI's Lemon Tart as well, and I love it, but has a more orange cast to me.

I just looked, and there is a matching Lemon Drop ink pad. I have never used Gina K ink, so can't comment on it from personal use. I can't imagine it wouldn't be a good ink, though, since all of her products seem to be of good quality. I'm sure someone else has used her inks, or that there is a YouTube video about them.

Robin...I'm trying to find a light yellow that is "just right". I have a bit of the PTI lemon tart. Would you, by any chance, be willing to share a scrap of the Gina K lemon drop with me?
Of course! pm me your address and I'll send you a sample!

Be careful with the Stampin' Up Daffodil Delight.......mine is more orange-ish than yellow.......have compared it with someone elses pad and you would think they were two totally different colors. My demo has said they are aware it's an issue........but that's about it.

I love Daffodil Delight also. I don't have Gina K's but I've been to her store in Milwaukee and her colors are beautiful.!
I'm about 90% SU. I have only SU card stock and very few inks that are not SU. I've heard where there is some problems with their ink being off a shade. Maybe their cs too.
So sad as they have always had such high quality and it seems to be slipping. I would hate to buy the DD reinker and iit doesn't match Ugh!

I haven't stamped on it yet but the yellow in the primary colors mixed pack by Recollections embosses beautifully. It's 110# so nice details and a nice, bright color - great for sunrays!
Thank you all! I think I will have to check out PTI and Gina K as you have suggested. I have SU's Daffodil Delight and although I do like it, sometimes it is just not a clear enough yellow for my liking. Sometimes it just looks like it has too much orange in it like the other stamper said.
I have just begun to buy from Papertrey and I LOVE the Lemon Tart, cardstock and ink cube.
I would have named it Butter. It's much less bold than SU Daffodil, and 110 lb. I was surprised at PTI pricing for cardstock....better than SU for heavier paper.
