Beate - Great idea! Can the baby wipe ink pad be used more than once? I'm wondering if storing it in a ziplock bag or something would make it last longer.
You might be able to use it several times. I haven't tried that yet. Sorry.
Thanks for telling Laura about the link.

Yes, use alcohol free baby wipes.

You can get the reinkers at most craft stores. They are usually in the isle with rubber stamps and stamp pads.
