"Hi. I'm Brandi Mackenzie and today I'm going to show you how to re-ink your stamp pads. It's pretty easy. Pretty self explanatory. Anyways you get a re-inker and you take your stamp pad. When your stamp pad is dry you just take your re-inker and just squeeze it on there like so. And that will re-ink your basic stamp pad. Also there are bursa mark or crafting inks that are a bit thicker to re-ink. The ink in it is a bit thicker. And I'll show you. It takes a little bit more. You notice how it stays up on the surface a little bit. What I do is I generally just take the tip and just sit and circulate it so it absorbs into the pad. And then you can just squeeze a little bit more until you're happy with the results. That is how you re-ink your stamp pads."
