Ink colour changes how a stamp reads. The generator offers nine colours — black, blue, red, green, purple, pink, sky blue, brown and orange — so you can match your brand or convention.

The classic three

  • Black — the safe, formal default; photocopies and scans cleanly.
  • Blue — distinguishes an original from a black-and-white copy; popular for signatures and approvals.
  • Red — high visibility for "approved", "paid" or official seals; common in the region.

The six extras

Green, purple, pink, sky blue, brown and orange give you room for brand colours or personal projects. They are great for custom stamps for family and friends as much as for business.

Colour on screen vs the print-ready PDF

Your transparent PNG keeps the colour you choose. The true-size, print-ready PDF is rendered in black regardless, because that is the master a stamp maker uses to manufacture the die. Learn more in our print-ready PDF guide.
