## Description

Fabric stamping is quick and easy with VersaCraft inkpads. VersaCraft inks maintain the natural soft hand of your fabric. VersaCraft is ideal for use on fabric and on other porous surfaces as well. Heat-set on natural fabrics (at temperature recommended for your fabric) and stamped images become permanent. Prior to heat-setting, stamping mistakes on fabrics can be washed, and it's like having a clean slate to start over again. VersaCraft also works very well with Fabrico Markers and is offered in many of the same colors. Think of them as a dynamic duo. VersaCraft inks are available in full-size inkpads, small inkpads and Inkers. Available in a wide range of colors. Note: pre-washing fabric or garment is recommended to remove sizing (do not use fabric softener when drying). For Stamping, Stenciling and More

Review: Rich and Versatile Black Ink for Various Crafting Needs - The VersaCraft Multipurpose Water-Based Pigment Ink in VK-182 Real Black is a top-notch ink for crafting and stamping. The pigment is rich and true to its name, delivering a deep, jet-black color that stands out beautifully on a variety of surfaces. One of the standout features of this ink is its versatility. It works exceptionally well on paper, fabric, and other materials, making it a great choice for a range of projects. The water-based formula dries relatively quickly and offers excellent adhesion without smudging, which is ideal for detailed stamping and crafting. The ink also holds up well through washing on fabric, maintaining its vibrant color even after multiple washes. The pad itself is well-designed, providing consistent ink coverage and allowing for even, clean impressions every time. Overall, I’m very impressed with the VersaCraft Real Black ink. It’s high-quality, versatile, and reliable for all your stamping and crafting needs. I highly recommend it for anyone looking for a dependable black ink with excellent performance.
Review: Perfect for fabric! - The ink is perfect for my use - stamping on linen fabric. It doesn't need pressing to set the dye and is machine washable - excellent product.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this a stamp pad or a motorcycle helmet?**
A: I don’t know why it says “motorcycle helmet“! It’s ink and I bought it for fabric. It works great after heat setting it!

**Q: Would this ink large pad fit my rubber logo stamp of 3x3?**
A: No, the stamp pad is 2x3

**Q: I want to stamp, say, 10 items do I have to stamp then seal then stamp etc, or can I stamp all 10 and then seal?**
A: I stamp all the images that I need, then iron the fabric to seal. 
If you mean fabric - I do not stamp on other mediums with this ink.
As long as you are not stamping so close that the pattern will be smudged I would think you should be fine to seal at the end.
Hope this helps.

**Q: Can I use for infant footprints on fabric?**
A: I have not checked the ink content for going directly on skin, but it's been used for infant clothing (ironed on and washed, first) with no issues.
