Dovecraft Essentials Premium Non Toxic Pigment Ink Pad, Gold,8.5 x 2 x 6 cm

Excellent gold, perfect pad & lasts well

Ideal for crafting

Unlike my other stamps this stamp is oil based, I'd imagine to distribute the mica powder evenly. The stamp ink is vibrant although I have only tried it on white card. Like oil based paints allow 3-5 days to dry completely before cutting, glueing or putting in cello bags or ink will smudge. (Tell me how I know!) Clean stamp with turpentine paint cleaner to avoid contaminating other water based inks. No other problems with ink pad. Looks great on my christmas cards.

Great value

Colour Great for making cards

The ink is very vibrant and spreads evenly across the stamp. However, my biggest issue with it is that the ink dries INCREDIBLY slow. I stamp some card a week ago and it still hasn't dried. Finding this to be very frustrating and causing the ink to catch on a lot of clothing. Be cautious!

Done the job well

Good quality ink pad, washes off easily,
