I take mine to the sink and run them under warm water, put a little mild hand soap on them and scrub with a soft nail brush. It gets all the metallic ink out of the nooks and crannies. I do this with mounted and unmounted stamps. I just make sure I let the mounted ones dry good before I use and rinse them again. They can get a little water logged.

Now You all do the same**** The following is a discussion of the term "acid free" as it relates to stamping inks, written by Jeff Winston of Clearsnap, Inc. (manufacturers of ColorBox, Vivid and Top Boss stamp pads.) WHY "ACID FREE" IS ONLY HALF THE STORY! "Acid," with regard to stamping papers and inks, is short for "acidity," a term derived from the pH scale. Anyone who has taken an "antacid" to settle their stomach or been prescribed a "salt free diet" has personal experience with the pH scale: ----pH Neutral---- 0------7------14 Acidic-Stable-Alkaline Alkaline means "salty". All substances can be measured on the pH scale for their degree of acidity or alkalinity. A piece of seaweed is technically "acid free" and very alkaline. Does this mean it is a good thing to include in your scrapbook or other stamping project? Not likely. Anyone who has owned a boat by the ocean or a car for several New England winters (where salt is used on roads to melt ice) knows that alkalinity is no guarantee of longevity. Although salt has been used as a preservative for thousands of years, it can also be very corrosive. "pH BALANCE" IS THE REAL ISSUE! Nearly all papers and inks involve at least some acidic elements in their manufacture. Higher quality art materials, through careful formulation and manufacture, "neutralize" these elements with other ingredients to achieve a pH balance. Therefore, "acid free" is much less important than "pH neutral". It means the same thing, but it's only half the story! THE MAIN Objective: "ARCHIVAL QUALITY" means the materials you use for a stamping project will last a long time! "Acid Free" paper was created to meet this objective, by carefully neutralizing the acidic elements used during paper manufacturing processes. 1. Use quality papers that are certified by the manufacturer as "acid free". Be aware that most coated papers will be alkaline because the chemicals used to coat the papers are on the salty side of the pH scale. Any acidic elements in your inks will react; this is one reason why many "dye" inks will color shift or fade rapidly on coated papers. 2. "pH neutral" is important where inks are concerned. It means that the inks are in fact acid free, but also are not too alkaline. pH neutral inks are considered "stable", yet other factors can contribute to the ARCHIVAL QUALITY of your work. 3. "Dye" inks are made from soluble coloring agents. They are dissolved chemicals, generally very unstable and prone to rapid fading when exposed to light. Higher quality dye inks avoid this problem to some extent, depending on the color used. 4. "Pigment" inks are colored with solid, insoluble particles, which means they are much more stable and less prone to fading. They do not soak into the paper or other stamping surfaces. As a result, they must be heat set or embossed on coated papers. 5. This sheet is provided in an attempt to "neutralize" some misunderstandings about the current "acid free" controversy. There are many other important factors relating to "Archival Quality" of your stamping materials. Please request further information if you are interested.

Use a large pattern, I first used a tulip out line that fit on a 4 x 6 card. I have also used large fill-able stamps like jars, fish bowls, etc. 2. Cut this shape out and decorate with stamps and stickers. 3. Now find some clear vinyl, I find it at fabric stores for a dollar a yard. Trace around your shape and cut out the vinyl. 4. Place these two together and use a 1/8 inch hole punch to punch holes about every 1/8 or 1/4 inch all the way around, spacing depends on what you plan to fill this card with. 5. Now lace the card with ribbon or yarn, start near the bottom and stop with four holes left open, now fill the card with whatever, m and m's, jelly beans, stickers, money, whatever. Finish lacing and tie a pretty bow.============== ==================== ============================ Rubber Stamping Tips & Tricks How to make a snowhill template! 1. Make a template by tracing or copying the pattern below onto cardstock. Carefully cut into three pieces. Reattach the second and third with a piece of tape, because we'll want to fold the pieces back together later. 2. Place the template on your card and fold pieces 2 and 3 back onto piece one. sponge lightly all along the top of piece one. For a two-hill card, then fold piece 2 up and sponge again. For a three-hill card, fold up piece three and sponge once more. Sponge with blue ink. 3. Stamp with trees embossed in silver or green and then stamp on your favorite snow image, be it snowmen, wildlife, or whatever you prefer. 1) Always store your inkpads upside down. That way when you turn them over to use them, the ink is on the top. 2) Place the powders that you use the most of in shallow square plastic dishes with lids (like a sandwich container). Put a small plastic spoon inside and when you are ready to emboss, hold the card over the dish and spoon the powder over it. The excess will fall back into the dish and not all over the counter. 3) When embossing messages, an image done with gold (or any color) pigment ink and clear embossing powder is much smoother and nicer than if you do it with gold embossing powder. 4) When trying to achieve custom color, stamp your image on a clear embossing ink pad, apply the color you want with a color marker, and emboss with clear powder. The coverage isn't as heavy as when you use colored embossing powder, but it has enough that you achieve a very nice effect. 5) When trying to shave just a bit off a card, or cut two or more pieces, lay a ruler just along the edge of the paper cutter so that when the blade comes down, the paper won't shift or buckle back up. You can shave even the tiniest bits off. 6) When looking for attractive printed paper to use as backgrounds, look in the giftwrap department. There are many beautiful wrapping papers that can be cut and used for your backgrounds. 7) Don't throw away empty lightbulk packages. The package is usally a bone colored corrugated paper. It can be water colored to achieve custom colors, but let it dry thoroughly between each coat. You can also use water color markers to color it, and of course, it is nice to use just bone color. Experiment a little - you'll be surprised. 8) To tear handmade paper, wet a q-tip and run it along the edge that you want to cut, and then pull gently. There's no need for expensive scissors. 9) To create a mat around your water color image, place a strip of masking tape on each side about 1/2" to 1" from the outermost edge of your image. Then mix your water color to a very subtle shade and watercolor all around the image right to the edge of the tape. Let it dry or dry it with your embossing tool. Heat the tape with your embossing tool so that you can pull it off without tearing your card. 10) To create a perfect faux leather card, use a brayer and roll liquid applique on the entire surface just as thin as you can and heat immediately with your embossing gun. It takes some patience to watercolor, but it receives a stamped image beautifully. You can also use Tulip puffy paint. It creates only a slightly different effect and is much more inexpensive. 11) When you're stumped for a background, simply emboss and image with clear ink and clear powder. It embosses just a deeper shade of the paper color and is very attractive. 12) When applying the sticky cusion onto your unmounted dyes, place them as close together as you can and then sprinkle the entire thing with baby powder or some other kind and shake it off. This will save a lot of grief for your hands and scissors. 13)When you are embossing, you can take a piece of cardboard and cover it with tinfoil and then lay your card on it and heat from behind the cardboard. The tinfoil conducts the heat well and will keep your powder from spitting all over the card.=========== =============================== ====================================================== Re: Swing Card instructions The Swing-A-Ling Card The Swing-A-Ling card is a fun, three sided, dimensional card that is extremely easy to make. I developed my own simplified version based on the elaborate, Victorian era swing cards, to teach in classes. The reproductions of these beautiful cards are available in gift shops, and are manufactured by Ampersand Studio out of England. It is very versatile and adapts easily for many occasions, and folds flat for mailing. Here's what you'll need: - - Long paper, at least 13 1/2" long x 5-1/2" wide to fit an A2 sized envelope. - - Extra paper to stamp your images on, and to make your swing platform out of. - - Scratch paper to plan your design out on. - - Stamps, stamp pads, markers, etc. - - Jump rings or jute, ribbon, or string (depends on your swing figure). - - 1/8" hole punch. - - Small pointed tip scissors and X-Acto knife & mat for cutting. - - Bone folder or other scoring tool. - - Metal cork backed ruler. - - Double stick foam mounting tape. - - Glue stick or Dry line adhesive for flat gluing. Step One: Preparing the paper Take your long piece of card stock, and starting from one short side, mark off a tab 3/8" from the end. Then make three rectangular sections that are 4 1/4" wide (by 5 1/2" tall). The easiest way to do this is to fold a piece of card stock, 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" in half like a greeting card. Cut along the fold. Use one half as your template. Match up the 5 1/2" sides and make your pencil marks along the edge for scoring lines. Do this three times for the three sections you'll need. Next, you will need to add a 3/8" tab to the end of the last section. Now, using the template provided, match up the measuring marks on the template with the paper size you're using. You'll notice that the template has several sizes on it. This is so you can use it to make different sized Swing-A-Lings. (You will need to make or find an envelope to fit the other sizes.) By simply finding the height of your paper on the template, and aligning the paper between the two marks, your tab will be automatically centered. On one of your 3/8" tabs there will be a flap, and on the other there will be a notch. These will interlock on the outside of the card to hold the card into shape when it is displayed. Score your long card stock on the pencil marks, and cut off any excess length of paper if it is longer than 13 1/2". Your card stock is ready for decorating! Step Two: Designing your card Go to your scratch paper sketch. If you don't have one, make one now, following these guidelines. The center panel is where the swing platform will be attached, on the top of the card. Plan for there to be something up there on the front to cover at least 1/2" across the top. The sides can be cut straight along the fold lines, or they can be die cut around images that are stamped or glued there. The bottom of the center panel will need to be at least 1/2" thick from the bottom up for support. What this means is that you will be basically cutting a hole in the center panel, leaving all sides of it intact. Plan what will decorate the two outer sides that are left and right of the center panel. This should be something that coordinates with your main image, the Swing figure. Next, plan what will decorate the the two inner panels that are left and right of the center panel. Keep in mind that these panels will be viewed from the FRONT through the hole, so if you are planning a landscape type of scene, they will connect at the tabs in back. This scenery stuff will be the "backdrop" for your swinging figure. Step Three: Preparing your images Stamp all of your images on your extra paper, and color them in. Your main image that will swing in the card will determine which kind of attachments you will use, and this will determine how your images should be cut out. If the image has something to hang from in it (a bird house on a string, a girl in a swing with ropes that go up, etc.) you will want to leave extra card stock around the attachment points to punch your 1/8" holes for jump rings. If your image is of a character only (preferably one with it's arms out) you will want to leave extra card stock around the hands to punch the holes through the hands to run jute or ribbon or string through, and make a separate rectangle "swing seat" and punch holes through that on the sides, too. This is so your character has something to "sit" on (unless it is a monkey swinging on vines through the jungle. . . then it doesn't need a seat!) All the other cutting can be like usual, about 1/16" or 1/8" around the general shape of the image. Don't bother getting too picky about the cutting. It usually just serves to make your pieces weaker than you want them to be anyway! For your first couple of Swing-A-Lings, I would recommend cutting out all of your figures and attaching them individually. Then, as you become familiar with the card form, you can start to go ahead and stamp some of your imagery directly on the card stock itself, and color it in that way. By doing it this way, you will learn what needs to go where, what will be visible and what will not, and how everything matches up at the back of the card where it interlocks. Step Four: Putting it all together Use the template provided to make the swing platform. You will determine, from your swinging element where to punch the point of attachment holes in the platform. They should be only as far apart as the distance from the left attachment point to the right attachment point; ie the distance between the holes in the hands, or the holes in the ropes of the girl's swing. If there is just one attachment point, it should be punched in the desired distance from the side of the center panel, as in the case of a birdhouse hanging from a tree. Attach your swinging element to the swing platform BEFORE you glue it into the card. It would take the abilities of an escape artist to attach the jump rings to the platform and the figure once it is in the card!! If you are doing the attaching with jute or ribbon, make the knots on the BOTTOM of the swing seat, or monkey hands, whatever, AFTER you have looped it through the holes in the swing platform. Thread the string through the left hand, up through the bottom of the left hole in the swing platform, over the top of the swing platform, down through the right hole in the swing platform, and through the right hand. Adjust the height, and tie the knots on the bottom. Knots not big enough? Tie a small bead to the ends of the strings, or run the strings through the holes of a small button. Glue the swing platform across the inside top of the center panel so the hole punched part with the jump rings or jute threaded through sticks out toward the center of the triangle. Attach your decorative elements and scenery with Dry line, double stick tape or foam mounting tape to the inside and outside of the card, being careful not to put things where they will get bent at the folds. Following the marks you had made in step one with the tab template, cut the one to be the flap and the other to be the notch. Fold the flap over the cutout notch, and the rest of the notched tab around the edge of the flapped tab to interlock. Stamp Your envelope, too! Once you have made a couple of these cards, you will see why they were so popular in their heyday. You will also see why they cost what they do today in the stores ($6-8 each). Anything hand assembled like this is pricey to commercially mass produce! NOTE: The swing platform can simply be a rectangle of card stock, 3" long by 1" wide, scored the long way down the middle. You can make your own notch template by taking an A2 sized postcard and making a 3/8" deep by 1" high notch in one 5 1/2" side, near the middle. Make sure you mark the top of the card stock, so your notch and tab will match up in the back. (Mark one 3/8" tab on your long paper, then flip your template over and mark the other one.) ------------------------------ From: Shannon Green Date: Sun, 09 Feb 1997 10:57:16 -0600 Subject: Re: Creative Dreams Oh absolutely!!

Easter Stamps are NOT required for these (optional and you could work in): *Use or create decorative paper (paste paper, emboss with design stamps all over some 2 inch scraps & color in with markers/pencils or just leave uncolored & embossed on your colored paper (you can even "over stamp" the embossed stamp designs to get really glittery design paper or just use your ink pads/markers and stamp over on scraps to make design/collage papers - make different scraps with different colors of embossing powder, use multiple colors embossing powder on the same scrap, use mulberry paper etc). *Cut out egg/oval shapes. 1 1/2 inch long is great if you want to layer your card. * PLAY* You may want to layer a similar shaped rectangle of interesting paper to the card first (about 3/4 inch smaller than the card is a nice size) arrange & layer about 3 eggs, *use real grass* with ribbon or thin strip of decorative paper OR glue a small clump of *Easter basket grass* (really thin it out) and glue some eggs on top of that OR cut out a *basket or bowl shape* From your decorative paper, use eggs and/or grass and layer/collage these together. You can also cut out bunnies on brown paper for the chocolate rabbit effect (I kind a like REALLY pretty eggs on interesting papers only,but that's me). * Make explosion card - place fold on left vertical and cut to large oval/egg shape, then make bottom flat (so whole card is egg shape, flat cut across bottom let's card "stand".* Make/use larger piece of decorative paper (how about the tissue/plastic combo used for envy's) and make whole large egg shaped card. * On all, put your Easter greeting on the inside or cover as you please. * Like the fold/accordion dolls that grampa used to make, you can make a card that's a "string" of eggs. Either use a long strip (3 1/2 high by 14 if you have 8 1/2 x 14 paper) or glue the edges of strips to make a long strip. You can use the freezer wrap/Saran wrap tissues for the whole strip or collage different papers to each "egg" or simply decorate each "egg" separately (since the edges that aren't cut and are the fold are straight you can just put a piece of Post-it on each fold as you go down the line decorating eggs). Again make a bit of the bottom edge flat so it will "stand". * To make your egg template simply (rather than trying to draw a perfect egg) fold a piece of paper in half and then in half again (so if you open you'd have four squares) just draw a quarter of the oval then open so you have one long vertical fold, then taper the top half of the oval to be smaller (thus egg shaped), cut then open all the way out (trim if you ended up with any "pointy" areas). start with the size scrap for the template of the height of the egg you want (for above about a 3 1/2 inch square is a good starting piece before folds). * with the previous note you can also cut the eggs first, then decorate if say you like the look of "striped" eggs or such. * Although the 'traditional' flower of Easter is the lily, many cards are now out decorated with tulips and daffodils, spring flowers. * The "traditional" religious colors of Easter are yellow and purple, many use lighter lavender and of course you can always toss that to the wind and use any colors. * (This is a little complicated - for fold out lovers) grab a scrap of paper and fold along - see if you can follow: play with scrap dimensions - then enlarge once you have the "pattern" - "feel of it" for a card. Start with a piece of paper 4 1/4 X 5 1/2 (1/4 of an 8 1/2 X 11 piece of paper) dimensions for this test scrap DO NOT have to be perfect. Fold on the long vertical. Open. Fold up about 1+ 1/2 inch from the bottom (smaller part on top as you look at it). Open. On the bottom smaller part fold - make a crease - on the diagonal from the place where the two current folds cross to the lower left edge of the paper and one from where the two folds cross to the lower right edge of the paper. (It's like half an explosion card). Open all the way out. OK - -everything on the bottom 1 1/2 inch that will fold up is what is the pop-out - -the top 4" will be the card. To make it all go together fold again on the long vertical - the part that is the card as well as the lower fold out part will both continue to "fold this way". Also, the lower part that folds up will continue to fold the same way. If (you're only folded on the long vertical right now) you hold the lower part with right hand forefinger and thumb and the upper card part with fore-finger and thumb and "push" the fold up up into the card you have the basic pattern. If you open the card you'll see you have a V (basket) that folds out. Put a few strands of "grass and some paper eggs on it, gluing the sides that aren't the basket down. OR fold down the top half inch of the "pop-out" part (just to have a crease line) have the part below the crease line be the basket, then trim adding top halves of eggs (ovals) above the "crease line", trimming off the edges on the part you'll glue down. Now (hopefully) that you see the folds how it works, you could also make the pop-out part the same size as the card - being one huge egg or whatever (the V part up). Play with it and let's see what you get! : )============= ======================= ======================== HERSHEY BAR CARD I buy a Large Hershey Bar. I carefully slip off the paper wrapper and opened it flat. I use it as a pattern on a light weight Kormekote. I stamped the Kromekote appropriately for my theme and folded and glued the wrapper to match the original. I then carefully removed the chocolate bar from the silver wrapper,taking care not to eat the chocolate! I wrote a check and slipped it into the silver wrapper,with a message that says"have a sweet life together". I then inserted this into my stamped wrapper, and I will send it as a wedding gift . ================= ==================================== GIFT ITEMS Embossing I wanted to share something I will try.....use water color paper, wet, lay glue, and several (10 or more) layers of paper on top, let dry. Mark off center area where mirror will be glued. Paint surrounding area with acrylic paint. Rubber stamp with gold ink or do embossing on repeat pattern surrounding where mirror will lie. Glue on mirror. (I have a 4" x 6" one I'll use). Lay a 'rope' of air dry clay around mirror. Paint gold. attach hanger to back. I hope to make several for gifts.... hope this inspires some one.... - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ - ------------------------------------------------- Birthday Card As a good will ofer I will tell each of you the very simple card I made today. ( this has to be simple because I have only been stamping 2 weeks!) I stamped and cut out a sitting bear. I folded one arm to the front as if he were holding something. I stamped the back side of his arm with the arm part of the stamp so it wouldn't be blank. I then stamped a large balloon on red cardstock and embossed it white( I didn't have a bowl stamp) and cut it out for a bowl and mounted it in the folded arm of the bear on a dot. I stamped a checker board pattern in white embossing on the bottom of a red card and mounted the bear on a dot. I intend to add a small rolling pin on the floor. I drizzled yellow applique on the bowl, bear and 'floor'. on the front I wrote," I may have made a mess of it, but... On the inside I made a toppled layer cake out of cut out paper pieces and used applique as decorating frosting. I added slick applique candles after I had puffed the rest of the card and it read.." I didn't forget your Birthday!" I know this could go for the red card swap but I thought since I was asking for so much I ought to give something and thisis all I had! I hope these are understandable! ;) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ - ------------------------------------------------ Special Affects Embossing "Streaker" Tip To acheive an interesting "streak" effect (such as on wind-blown clouds, fast moving cars or people, etc.) try this acrylic and oil painting technique. After stamping your image with good ole' pigment inks, take a plastic fork and lightly "pull" the ink from one side of the image while the ink is still wet. Pour on your embossing powder and heat as you normally would. The image will look as if it is in motion. Note: This works best on glossy paper stock and more heavily inked stamps. Experiment a little until you get the knack to create satisfactory results. - ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ - ------------------------------------------------- _________________________________________________________________________ Sponging Subj: Re:Compressed sponge You can make your marks on the sponge dry & it will work beautifully on glossy paper...or, after you make your marks on the sponge you can spray wet the sponge and try that technique....either way will produce very nice results. ------------------------------ From: Wantastamp@aol.com Date: Sun, 9 Feb 1997 12:06:36 -0500 (EST) Subject: Re: JUST TOO MUCH AMEN AMEN..I couldn't agree with you more..
