Tsukineko Versafine Clair Ink Pad - Medieval Blue

The Versafine Clair line features a slimmer, two-part container for easier handling, a lift-off lid for better ink control, and a deeper, stronger pigment for sharper lines and more vibrant colors, particularly suited for modern stamp designs.

Medieval Blue is a versatile shade that works well for vintage themes, masculine cards, nature-inspired projects, and adding depth to any design. Its richness allows it to be a primary color or a complementary shade.

On absorbent surfaces like standard cardstock, it dries relatively quickly, often within seconds to a minute. On non-porous surfaces like glossy paper or acetate, drying can take several minutes, and heat setting may be beneficial.

This certification means the product has been evaluated by a toxicologist and labeled according to U.S. governmental requirements for use in educational settings, indicating it meets certain health and safety standards for art materials.

Always ensure the lid is tightly sealed after each use to prevent the ink from drying out. Store the ink pad flat in a cool, dry location, away from direct sunlight.

The slimmer, two-part container is designed for improved grip and handling, making it easier to open and manage compared to traditional, single-piece ink pad cases.

Ensure the stamp is properly inked by gently dabbing it onto the ink pad. Avoid pressing down too hard. If the ink pad seems dry, it may be nearing the end of its usable life or require re-inking if a re-inker is available for this product line.

Allow more drying time for the ink to set, especially on smoother paper types. Consider using a heat tool on a low setting to speed up the drying process. Ensure you are not touching the stamped area before it's fully dry.

The white edge of the ink pad is normal. If the ink itself appears gritty or uneven, ensure the lid was sealed properly after the last use. If the issue persists, the ink pad may have been exposed to air for too long.
