Rubber Stamp
top ten tips on using rubber stamps
1. Text plates: Rubber vs. polymer
The text plate of a rubber stamp should always be made out of rubber rather than the less expensive plastic, now used by many companies to reduce expense. Rubber Text plates provide vastly improved, clearer text with sharp impressions every time they are used.
2. Self-inking company stamps
A type of Rubber Stamp known as a Company Stamp is self-inking and therefore avoids the use of separate ink pads. This can make your life so much easier since you won’t have to spend time cleaning up a messy desk and ink-stained fingers.
3. Quality comes first
When choosing a rubber stamp always go for the best quality ones, especially if it is for business purposes. If the stamps are for important and expensive documents you don’t want them to be smeared with ink or filled with unclear text.
4. Rubber stamps: Self-inking vs. ordinary
Self-inking scores again. You don’t need a separate ink pad. Not only do you avoid the mess of keeping a separate ink pad open on your desk but the very idea of keeping it open makes it empty faster as well as creating opportunities for it to spill all over your desk! A Self-inking pad remains closed which makes it last longer as well.
5. Business stamps: Flexible enough for longer service
Business stamps are a type of Rubber Stamp that has text plates that are easily replaceable. This lets you change the text plate on your rubber stamp when it becomes outdated, saving you the expense of getting a new one.
6. Clean the test plate with vinyl tape
Using vinyl tape on the text plate of the stamp can remove the ink from the plate so making it wonderfully clean again before you put it back in the drawer. This helps the text plate to be ready for use next time, without having to remove more difficult dried up ink.
7. Use different colours for different purposes
Why not use different colour rubber stamps for different purposes in your office? Buying them in different colours can help you in choosing which one to use. Ask for Business Stamps, since they are available in different colours. It saves you time as well as the frustration of having to try out each rubber stamp in order to make sure it’s really the one you want only to discover that it’s always the last one you try that you actually need!
8. Save time and money for you and your customers
Rubber Stamps have many ways of saving you time. For example, you don’t have to write your name and address on every business invoice or envelope that you send. Rubber stamps can also be used on customer’s cheques by stamping your company name on them, thereby making sure that customers get your name right every time. You also save money in a start-up business by not having to print thousands of pre-printed envelopes and headed stationery.
9. Have fun with rubber stamps
Rubber stamps are useful for not only company or business purposes but also for making greetings cards, photo albums, note books and wrapping paper. You can unleash your creativity here and create your own cards for friends and loved ones, which will undoubtedly be more special to them than ready-made cards.
10. Impressive cards and envelopes
Using the same rubber stamps on cards and envelopes adds that special touch for the gift-card receiver. You can use the same colours for both the envelope and the card and border it with the same rubber stamp making them even more beautiful.

Is there a rubber stamp ink pad that looks Christmas like?
I love to use stickers and stamps on my Christmas cards. Is there an ink pad that maybe has green and red together or would I need to maybe just buy a red and a green and press the stamp in both?
Hi - try a "Hybrid Inkpad". It has multi colored ink on the same inkpad so when you use it, the colors vary with the same stamped image. I have a hybrid inkpad called a "Palette" in "reflection blue". It varies shades of blue. Its really cool. But you can get many other colors and mixes that will go quite well with Christmas colors. I got it at....hold on....ok I got it online at "Stamp-Connection.com". Their toll free # is: 1-866-667-1133. Good luck and have fun! Oh... by the way, that stamp pad cost me: $7.95 in us dollars and is located in Oregon.
