Versacraft ink pad in Maize is that warm, sunny yellow that instantly makes your projects feel brighter and happier. It’s a soft mustardy yellow, vibrant but not overpowering, perfect for adding light without being too bold.
This pigment ink works beautifully on paper, cardstock, untreated fabric, wood, and other porous surfaces. It’s a go-to for scrapbooking, bullet journaling, creative journaling, and handmade packaging. If you love summer-inspired layouts, soft backgrounds, or natural color palettes, this shade is a must-have.
In journaling, Maize is perfect for highlighting titles, creating subtle backgrounds, or adding tiny details that catch the eye. It pairs beautifully with earthy tones, olive greens, beige, and off-whites.
Pigment inks like VersaCraft contain larger color particles than dye inks, which is why they sit more on the surface and look more opaque. That’s the secret behind their soft yet rich coverage, especially on darker papers.
You can also find the mini size and ink refill on our website, so you’ll never run out of your favorite lilac shade.

BITERSWIT GUIDE: HOW TO USE AND CARE FOR YOUR STAMPS
Here’s our Biterswit guide with tips to care for your stamps and inks.
HOW TO USE FABRIC INK
The best fabrics for stamping this ink are natural fibers like cotton, linen, and silk. The ink sets with the heat of an iron and holds up best on cotton and linen, although keep in mind this is not a permanent ink. You can also stamp on rayon or polyester, but on synthetic fabrics the ink will be water-resistant, not washproof.
1. Apply the ink gently. You’ll waste less and get a cleaner print than if you press the stamp onto the ink pad like there’s no tomorrow. No need to overload it.
2. Always test your stamp on paper first. Try a few times until it looks just right. Practice makes perfect! Once it’s working well, re-ink your stamp and start stamping on fabric.
3. Let the fabric dry completely. To heat-set the ink, iron the stamped fabric on the reverse side for about 15 seconds. This helps the print last longer in the wash. If you skip the ironing, it’ll still hold up—just not as long. Tip: place a piece of cloth between the iron and your fabric. Recommended heat: Cotton/High setting.
4. For washing, use gentle cycles and cold water. Once the print fades after many washes, just go back to step 2 and stamp it again!
5. To heat-set VersaCraft ink on wood or terracotta, use a hair dryer.
HOW DO I REINK AN INK PAD?
1. Shake the ink bottle well (if it’s already open, make sure the cap is tightly closed first).
2. Apply the ink evenly over the pad—from left to right, top to bottom, and diagonally. Repeat this process twice.
3. Let the pad rest a few minutes so the ink can absorb properly.
* TIP: After applying the ink, you can use a plastic spoon or small spatula to gently press and spread the ink into the pad. Then apply more ink if needed.
IMPORTANT NOTES
* These instructions are for VersaCraft inks. If you’re using a different ink brand, check the manufacturer’s instructions.
* The longevity of your print depends on the type of fabric and wash temperature (natural fibers + cold water = best results). Keep in mind that this is a domestic ink and not 100% permanent—it will fade gradually with repeated washing.
* VersaCraft inks are suitable for fabric, wood, paper, and uncoated cardstock. For glossy surfaces, you’ll need a different ink. Be sure the ink is dry before touching the print.
