New Stampin' Up Ink Pads

With the introduction of the new 2012-2013 annual catalog, Stampin’ Up! has made a very big change to the Stampin’ Pads. Introducing firm foam pads! They change your stamping experience for the better.

We know you’re going to love these new Stampin’ Pads – just look at all the exiting benefits listed below:

• Provide better ink coverage for your stamps!
• Light-tap stamping produces flawless images! (Literally....a very light tap on the pad)

In addition, our new Stampin’ Pads

• Create wonderfully solid images. The Firm Foam releases more ink onto your rubber stamp than the felt pads. When using the Firm Foam pad, your stamp will get an even, solid covering of ink that you may not have been able to achieve with the felt pads. Please note: if you are using the ink pad frequently you may need to re-ink your Firm Foam pad more often.
• Have a crisply printed, glossy label on the top of the pad that is easier to read and that will not fade or chip off!
• Come with color name labels in all four languages (English, Spanish, French, and German)--just choose your language, peel it off the back, and add it to the side of the pad for easy identification!
• Use the same patented flip-top case design that stores the inking surface upside down, so the pad surface stays moist!
• Are available in all colors, including our exclusive In Colors!

Please note: Five ink colors have undergone formula changes to improve functionality and color stability with the new firm foam pads. These colors are

• Basic Black
• Basic Gray
• Marina Mist
• Perfect Plum
• Tempting Turquoise

All five colors of the reformulated inks have been fully tested and approved. While using the new ink formula in the old Stampin’ Pads is fine, we do not recommend using the old ink formula for these five colors in the new firm foam pads. Any refills purchased after April 30, 2012, will contain the new formulated ink.

Betsy's Blossoms

I used Betsy's Blossoms and the new in colors to make this card. The flower is popped and so is the bird's wing. I used the blossom punch for the large flower and the 1/2" circle punch for the smaller flower. The middle flower was cut out by hand. I stamped off some of the leaves to get the 3-D effect. Don't you just love the new ribbon?

The thing I have noticed about the new pads is the color goes on darker but as it dries it lightens up just a bit. The foam makes such a huge difference. The images come out so much sharper. Guess who just ordered all new pads in Brights? One set at a time. I always need two pads for workshops anyway.
