Reviews
"I go the Jet Black Tsukineko Full Size Stayon Multi Surface Ink Pad and have been using it just about every day for around 9 months and it is still juicy with ink like the day I bought it. Mine did not have the protective inner liner on mine when I got it that is suppose to protect the freshness so I am impressed that there is still so much ink left in this ink pad after this much time and frequent use. I have used this ink pad in many different crafts and ways."
"I have only had this pad for a few months and am having trouble with coverage, still not sure if that's user error or if the pad itself is drying out."
"Did not like the ever inking devices for dating envelopes and opted for an ink pad and manual stamp you do have to change the date as you go along but since it is in seasonal use only that's not all that difficult."
"Even after nightly showers, sun, rain, and general mechanical-like abuse (student engineers) I never saw a wristband that had faded or smeared ink, even after the color of the wrist band itself had almost completely faded."
"If you buy make sure you buy the StazOn stamp cleaner."
"I kept hearing this was the ink to use for stamping and then coloring in the stamp if you wanted to avoid the ink smearing and this is mostly true - you don't want to color over the ink as it can be picked up somewhat."
"It works great, as described, just not the exact type of ink I needed."
"used this stamp for our wedding RSVP postcards."

Reviews
"The only thing I don't like about it is that even if I clean off my stamp right away, the stamp is still sticky like there's more ink on the stamp (I've tried soap, plain water, stamp cleaner ect) so it takes a bit and a little elbow grease to make sure the ink is off of the stamp.

Best Scrapbooking Stamps

Tonic Studios Tim Holtz Stamp Platform
Marked in both imperial and metric measurements, accurately placing stamps at specific intervals could not be easier. 5 inch stamp platform with an 8.5 x 8.5 inch stamping area side ruler and two magnets.
Reviews
"You take the top and flip it depending on whether you are using clear stamps or rubber backed stamps. I've been stamping with it for a little over a week now and it works wonderfully with the rubber stamps but I seem to have a harder time with the clear stamps. I took some pics to let you see, I will say the rubber backed background stamp with snowflakes was just perfect first time around and it was a brand new stamp so that was awesome."
"I purchased this stamp platform and it's great! I will note as a tip for stampers using clear stamps or even the rubber ones...it's good to "season" your new stamps by rubbing an emery board across the stamp to roughen it up and then stamp. Saw that tip on YouTube as well and I have covered my magnets in packaging tape."
"It's still small enough that it fits in the the small tote where I keep my most-used stamps and a couple small ink pads, but with the open edges it accommodates much larger paper. I'd pretty much abandoned my wooden block stamps in favor of clear stamps but I'm about to go un-mount all the block stamps to use in this stamp platform."
"3.75***** Large stamping area, easy to clean up, but mine device seem to have a low spot, where my stamps fail to make contact with my paper, on the clear stamp position."
"It is still easy to lift regardless of what side I use, I just wish both had the open space. I tested my fattest rubber stamp and it worked great on the "rubber" side and my clear stamps on my clear side and both came out without movement even when I intentionally didn't stamp all the way the first time."
"I also like that the lid is reversible (clear stamp and rubber stamp sides)."

Best Decorative Stamp Blocks

Fiskars Stamp Block Set
This set of stamp blocks even includes a convenient carrying case so it’s easy to take your stamp blocks along to crops. Ideal for stamping craft projects like scrapbook pages, cards, invitations, collages and more with a variety of stamp sizes.
Reviews
"To describe the blocks, they are a little slimmer and harder than other stamp blocks I've used. Oh, and the storage case is just the packaging it comes in which I find takes up a LOT of space since they are all laid out in a flat case to best display the blocks in a retail setting. Without the case, the blocks store neatly with my other supplies."
"The beveled edges on the top are nice to prevent discomfort when stamping."
"These help you gage position, amount of ink as well as pressure applied when stamping."
"If you're wanting a group of stamp blocks this Fiskars set is great for the price."
"I use these all the time, so easy to clean, great sizes, love the grid, honestly I don't know what there would be to complain about?"
"I like the grids on these so you can align your stamps correctly, and they're easy to handle."
"It's easy to center a stamp on the block, and then use the grid to line it up on the card."
"Very easy to clean."
