Coming soon:Gallery Info & Pics from the book!There wasn't enough room in the book for all of the information and photos for the gallery section. So I'll be adding them here. Plus, there will be a gallery of photos from readers showing what they have mde from the book. Send me your photos! ErrataThis is the text that should be on p.17. Some Thoughts on Rubber Stamp PadsI like to use permanent ink because it dries right away. This is particularly handy for working in layers and allows you to paint a color wash over something that is already stamped or printed. I also don't like to clean my stamps. Yes, I heard that gasp. But with the permanent ink, I don't have to. The ink dries on the stamp right away and (for the most part) doesn't transfer onto another stamp pad. When it does transfer, it creates an interesting color effect as it transitions from the old color to the new. I like that. You can also stamp on just about any surface with permanent stamp pads, including glossy paper, metal, and glass. And there is no need to heat set it to make it permanent. Other kinds of stamp pads work fine too. If you know you won't be painting on top of something you've stamped with a non-permanent stamp pad, then there's no problem. Different kinds of stamp pads and different types of paper give results in different effects and finishes. I really like the flat look of the chalk stamps. Play with different kinds and see what you like. Just like acrylic paint, different tools will stamp better with different kinds of stamp pads. |
