I'm always looking for new paints to try, but mostly use Jacquard Neopaque. It covers very well, even on black. I have better luck with the paint than the stamp pads - I like a vivid image. However, I wish the Neopaques came in more colors. I generally pour some of the paint into the cap and use a small foam brush to dab the paint on bit by bit. Too much and it glops into the crevices and leaves a blurry print. I get my brushes from the paint store. They are usually of higher quality than most of those in the craft store.<BR/><BR/>When printing on large amounts of fabric, I mix paint of a sheet of plexiglass (about 11x14") and apply the paint to the stamp with a foam brayer.<BR/><BR/>I will keep trying out the Magic Stamps. I have 16 of the things now, I'd better get some use out of them.Kim Hambrichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08784106179953299055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8510577370628118176.post-18575602945668435542008-02-29T08:51:00.000-05:002008-02-29T08:51:00.000-05:00i have no clue what magic stamps are but i like th...i have no clue what magic stamps are but i like those zebra lines.<BR/>i even like your sarcasim.phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10669096127325145722noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8510577370628118176.post-59711623534070828682008-02-28T20:07:00.000-05:002008-02-28T20:07:00.000-05:00I've used both the magic stamps and recently start...I've used both the magic stamps and recently started carving after seeing your work and I think that the carved impressions are way better. Of course the beauty of magic stamps is that you can make an impression out of ANYTHING! I love your work and I think you'd be hard pressed to find anything better than what you do :) Do you always use Jacquard paints? I'm having mixed results with paints...clearly white is the best but I can't seem to find consistent results unless I use a stamp pad. Again, I'm new to fabric stamping! Any advise?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
