This was very helpful. I don't have very many stamps and generally feel like I am horrible at using them.

[@jennydelgizzi4929]

Tina, I just so love your channel and I wish we lived closer, because I would give you the biggest hug! You are amazing. I pulled out my stamps because, you are right, we can do so much with them.

[@shabbydabbydoodah]

Stamping on patterned paper genius!! Even before you cut them out the paper is stunning!!! 😘🐝🤗🐞🥰🦋

[@shabbydabbydoodah]

Oh thank you so much, it does give some really pretty results doesn’t it? X

[@frazzledrobin5175]

I wouldn't of thought of stamping on printed papers either. Brilliant. They came out really nice. Thanks In case you've never heard of it, I've seen Pam on the Paper Outpost take a spray bottle of water and squirt her dried stamp pads and it seemed to worked well.

[@shabbydabbydoodah]

Oh thank you so much, that sounds like a great tip x

[@rebabyrd2099]

The stamps on the busy yellow rose looks 3D. Love it! Same with all the busy backgrounds.

[@Canadianrobin27]

I like that you are adding other colours and not so matchy, matchy. It gives the piece a focal point and provides contrast. Not necessary on everything but it does draw the eye to that little red butterfly.

I like the layering on the little booklet cover ~ very pretty! My favorite stamp that I frequently use is a small bird on a branch. Now I want to experiment using this stamp on some patterned paper. Thank you for the idea.

A great use of stamps, Tina. I started buying them about 20 years ago, and just sold about three quarters of them in my craft room sale. I kept the beauties that I know I will use for the style of art I currently do. Love your inspiration using them on the pattern papers. Thanks!

I often mass make these, using blank label stamps -- a great way to get a variety of different coloured labels to embellish pages, etc, and to use up paper scraps. Thanks for sharing, Tina!

[@carolmikolj5134]

This is brilliant. I have several 'postmark' stamps and script stamps and one that stamps the 'Postcard' title on the back. I sorted through my (much too big) collection of 12 x 12 pads from The Works and selected those designs that are suitable, with fairly plain backs. I was able to create a great postcard design on the plainer back and I stamped a suitable decorative design on the front. I would never have thought of doing it before seeing your video. Thanks for a great idea!

[@shabbydabbydoodah]

That’s fantastic Carol, so pleased that you had fun x

[@stormyswann6177]

[@missyb.623]

Thanks for the great ideas! I don't stamp as much as I should. My favorites are postal, post cards, tickets, and birds! I am trying to use the flower stamps more and then water coloring. Most of my stamps come from box lot auction sites. I remove them all from the wooden blocks. I would be hard pressed to identi6the make! I also prefer the permanent inks.

[@barbaramartin163]

Just love watching &listening to you. I’m a new subie...thank you for sharing everything you do! Just an FYI...when you get a new stamp take an eraser to it because they come with a film from the manufacturer. This is especially true for silicone but I’ve noticed a difference on ,y red rubber ones also.

[@brendagraw3729]

Do you ever copy the decorated sheet before cutting it up. Saves on stamping again! Lovely results.

[@shabbydabbydoodah]

That’s a great idea x

[@artyinkyfingers]

You do have splendid ideas that will keep me busy for years to come 😍 I use rubbing alcohol (ipa) to clean my blocks with (my hand stuff wasn't a strong enough %). It can be found on an auction site and produced and sold here in the UK. About £8 a litre. Cleans goo off scissors too! xxx

[@shabbydabbydoodah]

Oh thank you so much for the tip, I mwill check it out x

[@windsongcraft175]

Love the idea...I think if you stamp on just one sheet of paper at a time instead of a stack of papers then the stamps will work better.

[@shabbydabbydoodah]

Great tip, thank you x

[@demiwalsh3895]

Super video 🏆🏆🏆

[@idalujan3571]

Tina, when your clear stamp won't stick to the block you can wash both the block and stamp get off the oils which cause it not to stick. My favorite trick I learned from someone on KZbin is to apply a bit of chapstick on the stamp and it will stick really well to the block.

[@shabbydabbydoodah]

Thank you, that’s a great tip x

[@deborahgiles8214]

I too have lots of stamps collected over many years and I too have a small subset that I use most of the time. The rest don't get much exercise and yet, as much as I have tried to pare down the collection, I can't give them up. I think I have a "problem" ;-) They do get used sometimes...

[@shabbydabbydoodah]

It’s really hard isn’t it? Even though the bulk of our stamps rarely get used, we just can’t get rid of them. I do LOVE stamps, they are probably my next favourite craft item, after pretty papers x

Thanks, I already have those stamps , just need to add numbers to the ends...I figured it out.

[@shabbydabbydoodah]

Yay that’s awesome x

[@MessyPaperCrafter]

I like to keep a cheap bottle of hand sanitizer at my desk for cleaning. I clean off the back of my stamps & my blocks to help them stick better. I do a lot of mixed media & get all sorts of things on y block & stamps lol And the ones that just wont stick anymore I use a little glue stick on the back & clean both the block & stamp backs with the sanitizer afterwards. I’m pretty messy and it’s helped. And I noticed with Stazon ink that the stamps stick to the surface I’m stamping. So when I want a crisp image I’ll often stamp the stamp down & peel the paper off the stamp. Thankfully a lot of my stamping is for backgrounds, so it doesn’t matter if it’s not quite right lol

[@shabbydabbydoodah]

Great idea for the hand sanitizer, lots of ladies have mentioned it also. I will try that........maybe not right now whilst it’s sooooooo precious! Lol. X

[@boomartin3495]

If you have trouble getting a stamp to stamp well, try putting Versa Mark ink on the stamp before you use the colored ink. It will give it a little more grip.

[@shabbydabbydoodah]

Thank you so much for your great idea, I will have to try that x

[@leigh9354]

Do you clean your stamps after you use them? I have heard that the stazon ink breaks down the stamp if not cleaned.

[@shabbydabbydoodah]

No, I have to confess that I don’t. I haven’t ever had a problem though, but I have also heard people say that x

[@deborahcade2586]

Hi Tina, may I suggest to you that you use the proper ink for your surface. According Tsukineko, who makes Stazon, it is intended for non-porous surfaces such as plastic and glass. You will not have as successful application on paper. For stamping detailed stamps onto paper you will have excellent results from Versafine, also a Tsukineko product. It is intended for detailed stamps, it is waterproof, archival and dries almost immediately. I hope this helps! Hugs! Deborah Cade

[@shabbydabbydoodah]

Thank you Deborah I had never known that. I love the Stazon inks and they tend to be my go to ink when stamping , but might have to try some of the Versafine inks, I’ve only ever used their clear ink pad for embossing x

Did you know you can buy re-inkers for your ink pads? It comes in little bottles (but you don't need the whole bottle to re-ink it). So you can use the same ink pad over and over.
