Rubber Stamping

23 years ago

Do some of you gals rubber stamp in your albums? If so do you prefer using chalks, pencils/watercolor or pens to color them. Do you stamp on your album page or on another paper and cut out the stamp to place on the page. What are some of your favorite techniques. TIA

I've been experimenting with stamps myself. I have the Versamark stamp pad (the one that is not a color, but more a watermark) that I use. I have also done some embossing. For that I stamp on a separate piece of paper because the heat from the embossing gun can curl the paper. As far as coloring, I like the dauber duos. With the smaller sponge end I can be more accurate with color. I also have some of the acid free paints, but use those mostly with stencils in my books.

I have used chalks, markers, and colored pencils depending on the look I want. I always stamp on another sheet - after smearing a stamp on the scrapbook page.

Susan, what animals are you looking for? I bought a boxful of stamps through Craig's List recently and there's a Stampin' Up set, don't know if it's supposed to be an Africa set or a Zoo set. I have a zebra, lion (female, not with the big mane), giraffe and elephant. I can't see me ever using these, so if you're interested, let me know. Patty
