But there is also a technique to it! Thankfully, the technique is easy to learn, but just make sure you do some practising before you go stamping in your pretty journals :) Practice on some scrap paper first! Make sure the ink pad and stamping canvas are on a flat and even surface. Firmly hold your rubber stamp and press gently and evenly onto the ink pad. Don't press the rubber stamp too hard against the ink pad as you will get ink on the rest of the rubber stamp. Press the rubber stamp on the paper with the same steadiness as the ink pad. Enough pressure to leave ink, but not enough for the edges to leave a mark. Remember to press your stamp at a completely horizontal angle, so it evenly applies the ink to the surface. How to care for your stamps Caring for your rubber stamps is important if you want to keep them in good condition for many years to come! Follow these recommendations to make sure you're getting the most out of your stamps. Clear the excess ink from the stamps by repeatedly pressing the stamp/s against a scrap piece of paper. Use a sponge or a gentle cloth with warm, soapy water to clean the rubber surface. Use a toothbrush if you need to get into smaller crevices on the rubber stamp. Pat dry with a dry cloth and make sure no lint or other particles are left on the rubber surface. Store safely in a clean, dry environment, away from sunlight. Use alcohol-free baby wipes after each stamping use to prevent ink build-up between uses. Credit: Product copywriting and image photography to The Quirky Cup Collective.
