"Final Project - Joyce Leske"

Family Fun Crafts Stamping Instructions


1. Press or tap the stamp firmly onto the stamp pad several times.Large stamps can be inked easily on the raised pads by moving them around over the surface. Make sure the stamp is well inked by looking at its surface. If there are areas that appear"dry," you need to ink the stamp more thoroughly.	2. Apply firm, even pressure to the stamp. Stamp on a flat, smooth surface. Do not rock the stamp. This will cause blurring of the image. Large stamps and stamps with solid areas require more pressure.Apply even pressure to entire area using fingertips, but not allowing the stamp to move.	3. After cleaning the ink off your stamps you can use chalk, colored pencils, or acid-free markers to add more color to your project. Embellishments can also be used to decorate your project. Most importantly have fun and use your imagination!!!
