Sample Stamping Effect


It would have been great if the already impressive packaging was easier to get into once purchased.  I suggest a tear away stips on both the stamps/instuctions section and where the cog and stamp paddle are attached.  This so far appears to be the one oversight on the part of Inkadinkado for this product.

What I liked:

• Can be used with ink, paint, embossing ink (Versamark has enough work time to stamp and emboss)
• Can use cling stamps from your existing collection - CAVEAT - they have to be at least 1/4 inch in thickness to work properly with the cog/stamp paddle configuration
• Mix and match on colors and stamps in one design opens this technique up to practically endless possibilities
• Virtually impossible to reproduce this technique free hand so having this system takes all the measuring out of the process - nice and simple

What I liked less:

• Will not work with most clear stamps because they are thinner than 1/4 inch
• No storage provided for the parts - it would have been nice even if they offered something as an add to store the bits and pieces, especially as you expand
• Potential of the cog to move while stamping - a magnet set up similar to the 'Punch Anywhere' might have been an option - Inkadinkado - are you investigating that or was that already ruled out?
• Possibly offer a 1/8 inch paddle base converter to allow the us of existing clear stamps. If they don't offer one, I think I'll just jimmy rig something to try it out.

I may add more to each of the lists above as I use this more.  Most likely, will be getting the circle and possibly the oval cog.
