Our take on the Tim Holtz Distress Ink Pad Mini Kit 3

A four-pad set of Tim Holtz Distress mini ink pads in Antique Linen, Vintage Photo, Walnut Stain and Black Soot. The pads use the same water-based dye ink as the full-size Distress pads, pressed into a 1x1 inch stackable case with a raised felt pad. The four colors are a neutral-to-dark brown and black range, which suits vintage, grunge and aged-paper looks. Compared with buying full-size pads, the minis give you four colors in a small footprint and are easy to re-ink from coordinating Distress re-inkers.

Best forCard makers working small stamped imagesCrafters who want several brown and black tones without full-size padsTravel and crop kits where space is tightVintage and grunge paper projects
Pros
  • Same water-based dye ink formula as full-size Distress pads
  • Four coordinated neutral and dark tones in one kit
  • Stackable 1x1 inch cases store compactly
  • Raised felt pad works for direct-to-paper and small stamps
  • Re-inkable with matching Distress re-inkers
Cons
  • Small pad surface limits coverage on large backgrounds
  • Ink can be patchy on textured or unprimed paper
  • Felt pads wear with heavy direct-to-paper use
  • Only four colors per kit, so building a full palette means buying several kits

What reviewers say

Crafters who use these minis like the compact storage and the fact that the ink matches the full-size Distress line. The main complaints are the small pad size for bigger projects and the need to re-ink sooner with frequent use.

What people mention
  • Ink qualityPraisedUsers say the mini pads carry the same water-based dye ink as the full-size Distress pads.

  • StoragePraisedThe stackable cases are liked for keeping colors tidy and portable.
  • Re-inkingPraisedOwners note the pads can be refreshed with matching Distress re-inkers.
  • Drying outCriticisedSome users report the small felt pads drying out when stored or used infrequently.

About the Tim Holtz Distress Ink Pad Mini Kit 3

Mini Distress Ink Pads use the same water-based dye ink formula as the full-size Distress Ink pads, in a stackable 1 x 1 inch pad. Each pad has a raised felt surface that makes it easy to work on smaller craft projects.

The small size makes the pads convenient for projects on the go. They can be used in all the same creative ways as the full-size pads. They work with the Mini Ink Blending Tool, and they can be re-inked with the coordinating Distress Ink Re-inker.

Questions and answers

Are these the same ink as full-size Distress pads?
Yes. Ranger uses the same water-based dye ink formula in the minis as in the full-size Distress Ink pads.
Can the mini pads be re-inked?
Yes. Each pad can be re-inked with the coordinating Distress Ink Re-inker.
What colors are in Kit 3?
Antique Linen, Vintage Photo, Walnut Stain and Black Soot.
Do I need a special blending tool?
The pads work with the Mini Ink Blending Tool, which is sized for the 1x1 inch pads. Full-size blending tools are too large for them.
Are these good for large backgrounds?
Not ideal. The small pad covers little area at once, so full-size pads or a blending tool suit large backgrounds better.
Can I use them on fabric or other surfaces?
They are water-based dye inks made for paper crafts. Results on fabric and non-porous surfaces vary and are not the intended use.
Where is the Tim Holtz Distress Ink Pad Mini Kit 3 cheapest?
At Simon Says Stamp, for $14.99, as of our latest check.
