The 1" stamps are designed for use on paper and cards. The 2" stamps can also be used on walls and fabrics. The 4" stamps are designed for use on walls and fabrics.
If you're a cardmaker, you'll be delighted by our large range of inkpads, pens and embossing powders. With inkpads you can decorate paper, cards, glossy surfaces, glass (with Stazon), fabric (with VersaCraft), wood, shrink plastic and much more?
We have a fantastic selection of embossing powders available. All are used the same way.
Stamp your image using a pigment ink (VersaColor is perfect) Pour a good amount of powder onto the stamped image. The excess powder can be returned to the jar Heat the image gently with the heat gun. Use swirling movements so as not to scorch the surface. The powder will melt in a few seconds and that’s it!
Clear powders will allow the ink colour to show through. Other colours will completely obscure the underlying ink colour. Sparkle colours have a permanent glitter effect. Aromatic powders will retain their smell for a few weeks after melting.
Mulberry paper is made from the bark of the mulberry tree. Our paper is made in Thailand. It comes in extra large sheets (95 x 65 cm), or in a handly sample pack. It can be stamped or torn into small pieces and stuck to the front of cards. To tear mulberry paper, the best method is to run a damp artist's brush along a ruler laid on the tear line. Gently tear by hand against the ruler along the tear line. Any thick fibres should be snipped through with a pair of nail scissors.
