Types of ink pads
Stamp pads for crafting can differ in ink type, material, characteristics and more. The three main types are dye ink, pigment ink, and oxide ink.
Dye ink is ink in which the dye is completely dissolved in a liquid carrier. The ink is thin, transparent and quick-drying. This type of ink is particularly suitable for creating detailed stamps on light, porous materials such as paper, wood and canvas. Dye ink stamp pads are made of felt.
Pigment ink is opaque and visible even on dark materials. The ink consists of fine pigment particles suspended in the liquid. The paint dries slowly, allowing time for further adjusting a project with other crafting techniques, like embossing. Most pigment ink stamp pads are made of foam.
Oxide inks are a combination of pigment ink and a bit of dye ink. They react strongly to water, creating stunning effects also known as oxidised effects. Oxide ink stamp pads are hard and firm.
Archival Ink
Ranger's Archival pigment ink provides permanent stamp imprints on many materials such as paper, textiles and photographs. After drying, the imprint is waterproof and won’t run or blur when it comes into contact with water-based inks, watercolour paint, acrylic paint and markers. The refillable ink pads are available in different sets, sizes and colours.
Brilliance Ink
Create colourful matte or pearlescent imprints with Brilliance inks such as Tsukineko Brilliance ink pads. Use on smooth materials like paper, vellum, unpainted wood and shrink plastic. Brilliance stamp pads can also be used for embossing.
Memento Ink
