Default Classic pads for scrapbooking...

I do know the benefits of both Craft and Classic pads... but I do prefer Classic for the effortlessness in clean up, fast drying and two step stamping ... I was wonder how many scrapbookers use Classic and for how long and have you notice any fading?

I use the classic in my books...and I have for about 5 years now. So far so good..I haven't noticed a change. I really don't like the craft pads, and decided to risk the fading...makes me happier!!

I use classic in my books. The biggest reason is the cost. I have 3 craft pads, including vanilla, and just have a hard time justifying getting all the pads. I am slowly getting one or two at a time. But even my pages that are a few years old still look great. I would definately use the craft if I had them, it's just getting them that is my challenge! They are messier and less convenient, but I do like the archival benefits.

I use the classic ink pads. I figure that if I keep my pages in sheet protectors and from direct sunlight, I'm good to go.

I use the classic pads ! That craft ink is way to wet and slow for me! Hopefully I will not regret it in the end. :shock:

I have always used the classic pads. Haven't had any fading or problems yet. The craft pads take too long to dry.

I have been using classic pads so far but am in the process of buying craft pads. I had 3 and just ordered about 20 more last night... LOL - gotta love hostess benefits!!! I will slowly be changing to craft although they take longer to dry because I want the archival benefit of the pads.

I also use the Classic. I do have about half of the Craft but don't really care for them. I continue to use the Classic with no problem.
