Hi Stampers!
I promised you a tutorial on how to use the Stamp-a-ma-jig and today is the day. It's hard to get exactly the right photos but I hope this an introduction for you to this fantastic tool.
The SAMJ has 2 parts- the Positioner and a Transparency square:
The first thing to do is line up the transparency in the corner of the positioner
Ink up the stamp with a NON-PERMANENT ink, line it up in the corner of the positioner, and stamp.
You can see the stamp on the transparency:
I stamped this image and I want to line up the stick in the racoon's hands
So I put the transparency over my image and line it up where I want to stamp it
Time to bring in the positioner and line it up in the corner of the transparency
Remove the transparency keeping the positioner in place
Now line up the stamp in the corner of the positioner
This is what it looks like stamped before I remove the positioner (after it's been stamped)
And here is the final project:
Don't you just love the bear? This stamp set, Under the Stars, is one of my favorites. I'm so sad it is on the
retired list so I'm going to use it a lot in the next month! I'm also going to add this to a challenge over at
Create with Connie and Mary, the CCMC198 Sketch challenge. It's a bit loose on the sketch but I think it works! I hope they do to! Instead of layering the bear OVER the bottom belly band, I layered him UNDER the belly band, keeping the location and balance of the original sketch. Okay, it's a stretch, but it was my inspiration!
Thanks for stopping by!
