Magic Stamp Tutorial



Directions for use:


1. Simply heat Magic foam Stamps a 300-400F heat source for about 30 seconds, keep heat gun or foam block in motion to avoid over heating.


2. Press heated foam quickly against any cool, texture or dimensional surface. Hold down firmly for 15-20 seconds.


3. Molded image will remain intact until foam is reheated. When reheating, deeper impressions may not disappear completely until you resold a new surface design.


4. Please note: a design may also be ‘engraved’ in Magic Stamp foam with a pen or pencil. However such an impression may not “erase” with heat and may be permanent. Consider inscribing a piece of styrofoam and holding Magic Stamp foam with it.


5. Ink with any water based marker, ink pad or paint pad. Stamp with varying degrees of pressure to produce finer or coarser impression detail. (Experiment first on scrap paper.)


6. Wash stamp with plain water and milk detergent. Dry by stamping on an absorbent surface.


This works so well with Colouricious Gelli plates.
