Product Information
Full details
This A6-sized stamp set, designed by Sharon Callis, is ideal for card makers seeking precision and ease of use. Its key benefit lies in the thicker, permanently clear photopolymer that ensures easy alignment and repeated clean impressions. A potential caveat is that while sticky, the adhesion may require occasional re-application for optimal results.

FAQs
Are these stamps cling or peel-and-stick?
These are permanently clear stamps with a sticky back, designed to adhere directly to acrylic blocks.
How thick are the stamps?
The photopolymer sheet is 3.2mm thick, which aids in easier alignment.
Can I use these stamps with embossing ink?
Yes, these stamps are compatible with various ink types, including embossing ink.
What happens if the sticky back loses its stickiness?
You can often restore the stickiness by gently cleaning the stamp's adhesive side with a slightly damp cloth and allowing it to air dry.
Do the stamps come with acrylic blocks?
No, the stamps are sold separately from acrylic blocks. You will need to provide your own acrylic blocks.
How should I store these stamps?
Store them on their original backing sheet or on an acrylic block in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.
What does 'A6 size' refer to?
A6 is a standard paper size, approximately 4.1 x 5.8 inches (105 x 148 mm). The stamp set itself is designed to fit within this approximate dimension for convenient use in card making.
Troubleshooting
Stamp not sticking to acrylic block
Ensure both the stamp and the acrylic block are clean and dry. If adhesion is weak, gently clean the sticky side of the stamp with a slightly damp cloth and allow it to air dry completely before re-applying.
Faint or unclear stamped image
Check that the stamp is evenly inked. Ensure firm and even pressure is applied when stamping onto the project surface. Clean the stamp thoroughly if ink residue is present.
Stamp leaving sticky residue on project
This is uncommon but can occur if too much pressure is applied or if the ink is not fully dry. Ensure the stamp is properly cleaned after use and allow ink to dry on the project before touching.
