There is such a wide selection of stamp ink colors, both in the dye and pigment types of inks. One of the more popular assorted color stamping kits (rainbow pads) are those that contain removable bases, so that you can replace the colors individually (such as the colors you use most often). These types are usually sold in eight totally different colors or coordinating colors. They are also stackable and come in more than just one color palette.

The older rainbow dye pads would turn a dull brown as the colors would often run together. However, with the new types of rainbow pads, this problem does not occur because you are able to separate the colors when storing the pads, which prevents the colors from running together.

The assorted colors are still available in smaller packaging so that they could easily be toted from home to a craft club or other gathering.

Many other types of ink formulas and techniques have been developed as their popularity increases. Some inks have been developed that are for use only on fabrics, for example. Other inks have taken on their own special effect, such as those that dry to a chalky finish. Many inks enhance the creativity and techniques of the artists who use them. Some inks don't even have any color, but merely a watermark appearance when stamped.
