FAQs
What type of ink works best with these stamps?
These stamps work well with most types of ink pads, including pigment, dye, and hybrid inks. For best results with clear acrylic blocks, consider using inks that provide good coverage and crisp lines.
Do I need a special tool to use these stamps?
Yes, these are cling stamps and require a clear acrylic block for mounting and stamping. They adhere to the surface of the block.
How do I store these stamps to keep them in good condition?
Store the stamps adhered to their original backing sheet or a similar static-cling surface. Keep them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
Can these stamps be used for heat embossing?
Yes, these stamps can be used with embossing inks and powders for heat embossing projects. Ensure the embossing ink is applied evenly.
What does 'deeply etched' mean for a stamp?
Deeply etched means the rubber design is carved with more depth, which helps to hold more ink and produce cleaner, more detailed impressions without excess ink pooling around the edges.
Are these stamps suitable for beginners?
Yes, cling stamps are excellent for beginners due to their ease of use, repositioning capabilities, and straightforward storage.
Troubleshooting
Stamp not adhering to acrylic block
Ensure the cushion side of the stamp and the surface of the acrylic block are clean and free of dust or oils. Gently wipe both with a damp cloth and allow them to air dry completely.
Ink not transferring clearly
Ensure the stamp is evenly inked. Apply moderate pressure when stamping. Check if the rubber etching is clear of any residue.
Stamp losing its cling over time
Clean the static cling cushion with a slightly damp, lint-free cloth. Let it air dry completely. Avoid using harsh cleaners or excessive moisture.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: To use, peel the desired stamp from the backing sheet. Align the stamp with your chosen clear acrylic block and press firmly to adhere. Ink the stamp using your preferred ink pad, ensuring even coverage. Position the inked stamp onto your project surface and press down firmly. To remove, gently peel the stamp off the project and then adhere it back to its original backing sheet or a designated storage surface.
Compatibility: This stamp is compatible with any standard clear acrylic block. For optimal positioning accuracy, Tim Holtz Grid-Blocks are highly recommended.
Care: To maintain the static cling properties, avoid touching the cushion side with oily substances. Store stamps on their original backing sheet or a clean, static-friendly surface. If the static cling diminishes, gently clean the cushion with a damp cloth and allow it to air dry completely.
