You might remember that last week I managed to reink my Pear Pizazz Classic Stampin' Pad with Old Olive. See this post.
I have managed to successfully reink my Pear Pizazz ink pad and this is how I did it: -
This is not something you want to try with an old and well used ink pad as it does take a bit of time. As my ink pad was very new it was worth the effort.
Hold your Classic Stampin' Pad under a cold tap until the water runs clear.
Leave in the sun to dry.
Reink your classic ink pad with the correct refill this time. I ran lines of ink across the pad until it was all filled. It took about 1/2 a bottle of ink.
Stamp an image, I used the a solid image just to make sure, to check that your classic stampin' pad is completely inked. I used the whale from the 'Animal Tales' stamp set.
I hope you never have to do this, but if you do, you now know how.
Don't ever throw out your classic stampin' pads. Buy a matching ink refill for only $7.25, which will last many reinkings. (Ink Refills are only available for colours in the current Idea Book and Catalogue.)
