Our Artist in Residence answers your questions
Q: Lovetostamp61 asked: "When I use the classic black ink pad on my stamps I can't seem to clean the black entirely off the stamp. I am afraid to ruin the other stamp pad colors and worry that my stamps are ruined (except for use with the black ink). How do I clean the stamps?"
A: Black ink sometimes stains the rubber. If you cleaned your stamp after using the ink, it shouldn't come off in other ink pads.
You could try to use a different stamp cleaner to get off the black stain on your rubber stamp. Try JudiKins, Stazon or Ultra Clean cleaning solutions. They should get your ink completely off your rubber.

Feedback From Past Tutorials
Julz has a suggestion for the Ruffled Ribbon Border tutorial: "This is one of my favorite techniques! You can also separate the fibers on one end and pull a few of the middle fibers while you scrunch down the ribbon. It's a great addition to give a little extra oompf to your project!"
