Stop Overinking Your Stamps!

27 Sep

Do you get ink everywhere when you stamp? I often find that one of the main problems leading to this is overinking the stamp to begin with. Stop overinking your stamps! I have a quick tip to share to help prevent this!

Best Tip To Avoid Overinking Your Stamps

Stop overinking your stamps by doing the following. Gently lay the stamp on the ink pad. DO NOT press. Move it a couple times to even out the ink, but don’t apply any pressure. Remember – the stamp at rest is best.

That’s it. Stamp the image or sentiment and enjoy a (hopefully) perfect result since you didn’t have too much ink! In the video I also shared tips for using the Stamparatus to get a great stamped result…

…and using a shammy or Stampin Scrub to clean your stamps. This alone keeps a lot of ink off your hands.

Have a great day!
