Default CTMH

I've just purchased 3 sets of stamps and I love them! The packaging is fantastic and the images are super cute (no trimming required either!)...I'm curious about the ink. Anyone have any comments about it?

Thank you;)

It works beautifully with the CTMH stamps and I've used it on other clear stamps as well. I have about 16 of their pads.

I love the ink with their stamps and other clear stamps. It works fine with rubber but GREAT with clear!

It is a dye based ink so dries quickly. It can't be used for embossing. But other than that...I love it! My favorite thing about it is that it cleans up so easily. On my rubber stamps it doesn't stain them at all...and on the clear stamps it stains them a lot less than other inks I've used.

On that note, my favorite black in (for ease in cleaning) is Marvy black. You can clean both this and the CTMH inks off your stamps with just water and it will come off if you clean them right after use.

The CTMH ink is designed specifically for clear acrylic stamps. That's why it works so well with them. I usually keep a wet paper towel on a paper plate when I'm stamping and just stamp off any little bit of ink that's left on the stamps. Rarely ever have to give them a good cleaning unless I'm using pigment ink or Stazon.

Thank you for the replies and info...I'm in love with the CTMH ink colors, so I'm going to give them a try.

Another thumbs up from me for CTMH inks, they are the best on clear stamps! And I love having 60 colors to choose from too.

I have tons of CTMH inks and I love them. They are my favorite inks, hands down, and I've got ink pads from several companies. If you decide to get some, you won't be sorry!
