Found: Images and Accessories for Stampers with Flair


© Leslie Frederick



Periodically in your stamping career you work on a project that needs an extra sense of flair, or humor, or pizazz! This article discusses some new products by tried and true stamp companies that maybe just what you are looking for...

Many stampers swear by Dr. PH. Martin's Ink. If you are one of those people, you will want to go to http://www.inkadinkado.com. This site carries the latest in the Martin family, Dr. PH. Martin's Inkpaks. These inks are gorgeous metallics that include unusual colors like saffron. Try it on your next celestial project and watch the moon and stars sparkle like never before.

If you are a Kliban cat fan you'll want to head over to http://www.americanartstamp.com. Those crazy cats are in more images than ever. I don't know where Kliban keeps coming up with these novel ideas, but if you love these cats you'll have to get several to add to your collection. Personally I love the cat stamping the fish!

I have a new obsession with eyelets and have found a wonderful selection of colors, as well as the setter and punching tools at http://thestampdoctor.safeshopper.com. While you are there you may want to surf to the website that features the metal tins for holding the eyelets in as well. The StampDoctor also has frame-up stamps for making wonderful framed images of any of your stamps.

At HIA, I had the opportunity to see several of the new line of images from Stamp Francisco. If you like ethnic and multi-cultural art you must go to http://www.stampdiva.com and few these stamps. Picture them on a faux fur paper, or on brown parcel paper thats been crushed and distressed. Add some twine or jute with some of your newly purchased brass eyelets and you'll have a project that is eco-friendly and gorgeous. While you are at this site, check out the Dewey, Inkum & Howe stamps. Purchase one to stamp on a postcard to send to a friend who needs a chuckle!

Please come back and visit in two weeks when we'll discuss stamping on a variety of surfaces...just in time for Easter and Spring gift giving...until then, may your embossing powder never stick where you don't want it!
