The Brilliance Peacock Three Colour Ink Pad is designed for crafters and artists who require high-opacity pigment ink that performs reliably on both light and dark surfaces. Its versatile formula is perfect for paper crafting, leather stamping, and mixed media projects, offering a beautiful trio of Sky Blue, P. Jade, and P. Lime.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Is this ink waterproof once dry?
Brilliance ink is a pigment ink and is generally fade-resistant and permanent once fully dry on most surfaces.
Does this ink work on fabric?
While intended for paper, leather, and wood, it may work on some natural fibers, though it is not formulated specifically as a fabric ink.
Can I use this for embossing?
Because this is a pigment-based ink, it stays wet on many surfaces long enough to be used with embossing powders.
What is the best way to clean my stamps after using this ink?
Use a gentle stamp cleaner or a damp cloth with mild soap and water immediately after use.
Will this ink stain my photopolymer stamps?
Some pigment inks can leave a slight tint on clear stamps; this is normal and does not affect the performance of the stamp.
Troubleshooting
Ink appears dull or faint on the stamp
Ensure the ink pad is not drying out and apply even pressure. If the pad feels dry, verify that the lid has been kept closed when not in use.
Ink is smearing on glossy surfaces
Allow for longer air-drying time (up to 15 minutes) or use a heat tool to speed up the setting process on non-porous materials.
Colors are bleeding into each other on the pad
Clean the surface of your stamps thoroughly before pressing into the pad to prevent cross-contamination of pigments.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best results, ensure your stamping surface is clean and free of dust or oils. For the most vibrant output on porous surfaces, apply even pressure across the stamp block. When using the ink as paint, utilize a small brush or a plastic palette to mix the ink with a tiny amount of water if you need a thinner consistency.
Care instructions are straightforward: always press the cover firmly back onto the pad immediately after finishing your project to prevent the pigment from drying out. Store the pad in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the vibrancy of the Sky Blue, P. Jade, and P. Lime inks over the long term.
