Unlike traditional wood-mounted rubber stamps, self-inking stamps have a built-in ink pad that automatically re-inks the rubber die after each impression.</p><p>That means there&apos;s no need for a separate ink pad! Simply press down, release, and you&apos;re ready for your next impression.</p><h2 id="step-1-get-to-know-your-stamp">Step 1: Get to Know Your Stamp</h2><p>Before using your new stamp, take a moment to get familiar with it.</p><ol data-spread="false" start="1"><li><p><strong><strong id="isPasted">Access your ink pad.</strong></strong> Your ink pad is located just above the clear base.
