AIP-31468 Archival Ink Pad, Jet Black, 6.86 x 9.91 x 1.78 cm

Good quality ready to use.

The is the larger pad, although they do a jumbo pad. I find this is the right size and brought the same brand and colour ink refill. I used Black the most, so this larger pad was better value for money and permanent, so if I paint a wash over the top the ink won't run or smudge. Nice colour black. Stamp pad is an easy size to use and functions well.

A quick delivery

I spotted 1 review that attached a photo with dire warnings that this contained chemicals that could cause cancer. There is no such warning on the ink pad I received. Another review was negative because the lid was not hinged but lifted off completely. For me that is a pro and not a con because I always get myself in an absolute mucking fuddle with hinged lids. Overall I prefer Versafine when stamping very detailed images on distress ink backgrounds but this is good for other mediums. As another reviewer mentioned - be sure to clean your stamp or stencil really quickly otherwise they will be permanently stained.

Love this brand. Great ink. Lasts a long time.

This is my favourite black ink pad. It is good quality, permanent and works great with pencils and water colours.

I have stamped with this ink and used, dye inks, pigment inks, color pencils, water color pencils and water colors to color in the stamping with no smearing for fading. This ink dries faster than a pigment ink but does take a little longer than a dye ink to completely dry. It is not suitable for heat embossing as it does not stay wet long enough.

Good black ink for stamping and crafts
