Yay - I made a stamp!!!!

I finally got five minutes to make a stamp using my Theresa Collins Stamp-maker last night. I was surprised at just how easy it was. In less than 10 minutes I had a gorgeous snowflake stamp.It's little dodgy but if I hold my tongue the right way it works fine.
The things I learnt along the way -
  1. make sure you really press the plates down so they are flat.
  2. make sure you spend extra time washing out - use plenty of soap and warm water and make sure every bit of the residue is gone.
  3. make sure you use a timer, your watch is not quite accurate enough
  4. even if you think the design isn't too fine, follow the instructions for fine designs. 
If you have one have fun playing if you don't put it in your Christmas list.
