Rubber Stamping For Beginners
When you make your first attempt at rubber stamping it may be less than successful. Don't give up. There is a way to get a clean and crisp image each time you stamp.
- Check your stamp for full ink coverage
- Pounce your stamp up and down on the ink pad
- Twist your stamp a time or two on the ink pad
- Do not rock your stamp side to side on the ink pad
- When applying your inked stamp to paper go straight up and down
- When lifting your stamp from the paper, raise it straight up
- Do not rock your stamp side to side when pressing it on the paper
If you follow these tips your images will come out better.
