Stamp did not work

Apr 27, 2026 | Elysia M.

I ordered this large pre-inked stamp for a client to use for stamping their store’s brown kraft paper bags. After several attempts to get the stamp fully saturated with ink, it still wouldn’t fully transfer when stamped on multiple surfaces. Do not recommend using this product for branding.
