Using Big Stamps
Recently, I found a new-to-me stamp company, Colorado Craft Company. Their Big and Bold stamp collection looked particularly interesting because they are really large images! I purchased a couple of sets and started playing with them. The first one is called “Miss You Peony“. Working with the gorgeous peony image led me to discover a few tips and ideas that I hope you will find useful when using big stamps on your projects.

Extra-large clear stamps may be too big for a traditional acrylic block. Listed below are some alternate ideas for using a big stamp. Practice on some scratch paper to see which options work best for you and your project. Keep in mind, it is a good idea to turn the stamp upside down and apply the ink to the stamp rather than tapping the stamp onto the ink pad.
- Using the carrier sheet that the stamp comes packaged upon
- Fiskars Easy Stamp Press I have better success with this tool if I press down without hesitating
- Using your hand as a flexible ‘block’ – this is particularly useful in art journaling
- Using the top side of the MISTI tool or removing the top of the Tim Holtz stamp platform and using it as a giant block
Ideas
Watercoloring
Traditional Coloring
Background stamping – no coloring
The art journal page on the right-hand side has the peony stamped on it several times. Both projects used Tuxedo Black Memento ink.
