Thank you ladies I've. had my IOD stamps put away for Over a year. I was a newbie and never really got started with them so this video has helped me a lot
I just received my IOD stamps and came over here to learn how to ink my stamp pad. Y’all are cracking me up over here! Looking forward to learning more and watching.
@@UnicornDustDesigns I was just wondering what you think of the IOD Stamps that you bought 2 years ago? I just bought my first IOD mould and I love it. The micro rim and all the texture are fantastic.
I’m a newbie. Just subscribed n learning about stamping. You girls are so much fun but I appreciate all that you showed me. Thankfully I have the mounting liners cuz I know I’ll need them. I learned a lot in this video but I definitely have no idea what masking is. Hopefully I’ll find that video soon. It’s been a real pleasure watching two sisters boss each other around LOL. ♥️😊👍
Hi Shelly! We're so glad that you found us🤗 As for masking, it's such an awesome technique once you get it down! I'll link a video for you which will probably lead to more LOL enjoy😍🙌 ua-cam.com/video/jdeXsVt2h-c/v-deo.html
@@IronOrchidDesigns Thank you for sent the link n also acknowledging me. It always make a person feel good knowing you took the time to read my comment. ♥️ Looking forward to learning more.
Hello lovely ladies, it's always great to see a new video of yours, well, it's new to me anyway! I love how you used your aprons to keep the pot steady - I remember when one of you, the brunette actually - used a box that you had cut a hole into to keep a big terracotta pot in, so it stayed steady while you painted and then stamped it. Do you remember that? It was when you were making a pot look similar to a piece of Staffordshire pottery. See! I never forget anything you have taught me ❤ Love from Amanda Jones in Australia. P.S. I'm still trying to find the stamp you used in that video, it's the one with the beautiful roses on it!
Ladies, I have to tell you that NOT ONLY I am the proud owner of this IOD set of stamps, but I ALSO have a collection of original Victorian pots that bear these or similar stamps. I have been collecting them here in England over the years. This video is soooo helpful...!I shall now be able to make countless Christmas presents, i,e. pots of marmalade, potted shrimps etc etc... The sky is the limit with IOD moulds/stamps! THANK YOU! 💐🙏💐
Thank you, you two gorgeous ones...I just wanted you to know how well conveyed and explained your video was...Ah, the many mysteries of stamping lol! 🥰💖🌈
I really love you guys. Best laugh I have had in a while. Don’t forget besides the spam the dreaded deviled ham. My kids don’t know what a canned vegetable is let alone if I had ever tried to feed them that or corned beef in a can,lol. Great tips, demos. ThanksS❤️💞❤️💞❤️💞❣️
I have an idea for you. How about a transfer that duplicates a measuring tape that we can burnish on our crafting tables! I’ve screwed down a yardstick to my sewing cutting table and taped a soft tape to my sewing machine pull out shelf. It would save always having to pull out the rulers to measure anything! What do you think?
I would love to get my hot little hands on some of your stamps! I would also love some other styles to choose from because although I love old-world style (including occasional Victorian), I like having style options such as: Asian, mid-century (not necessary Sputnik designs), neoclassical, Art Nuevo, Art Deco, boho, zen, French, shabby, coastal, Hollywood Regency, industrial, some modern, etc). Hoping to see you offer some of those eventually! :-)
Hi Ladies! Thank you for this awesome tutorial. Can I use chalk paint instead of ink on the stamps? If so, would I need to do anything different? Thanks. 💐
Yes, you can definitely use paint on the stamps. You'd want to get an IOD brayer (which is a special roller) from your local stockist. Pour a bit of paint on a paper plate and then load up the brayer with paint. Roll the paint onto the stamp and make away!
ty so much for is video! truth I've felt kind of intimidated about buying stamps. Each time I've been at DIYAGoGo I want to get one, and I chicken out because I feel I'm not going to be any good at it. But this seems doable, and so much fun!! Surface pucker means bulgy right? And here's the dumbest question :( so if I want to do like 5 different colors of ink, I have to buy the 5 stamp pads, and how long will they last? Ty !! Love you ladies!
Oh, I totally resonate with the feeling of chickening out and not trying something new! You can DO it!!! We recommend just giving it a try and having fun with it ❤️ A great place to ask questions about tips and techniques, if we don't fully cover it in our videos is our IOD creative tribe Facebook group. Often group members will get comments on a post with advice or encouragement within a few minutes! facebook.com/groups/IODcreativetribe . It’s a closed group but members are approved with very little wait time! Another wonderful resource is your lovely stockist! Hope that helps, and happy creating, Lily!
Have you ever tried Staz On ink. It's alcohol based , permanent and great for non pourous things, tiles, glass, ceramic, gourds, etc. I love this stuff. Love your products.
Hello sisters. I love all your products. I have a question.. After you stamp on a smooth ceramic surface (I’m stamping on a creamer) I know the ink is permanent, but how do you seal the ink so it doesn’t come off when you wipe it or hand wash it? Thank you
Hi sweet, beautiful ladies! I wish you knew how helpful and enjoyable your videos are. So thankful for your products and being able to get tips and tricks for using them. Wishing you both a happy day. 💕
I love I love your jobs girls !! ... I'm excited to start using transfers. But I have a doubt, I usually seal my furniture when finishing them with lacquers, I use the Flat High Performance of the General finish line and the Rust-oleum line, my question is if I can use it in the transfer? I hope you read the message Thank you. A hug!
Yes - we love General finishes’ products! Be sure to seal your chalk painted piece before applying the transfer for increased adhesion. You are welcome to seal afterward as well if you choose. 😄
I chalk painted some coasters and then stamped. No matter how heavy or little ink I put on stamps, and not shifting, they bled. I also seasoned them. What am I doing wrong?
Hi Amy! Did you seal your paint before stamping? The ink may stick better to the chalk paint unsealed. Let us know and we can get it figured out with you🤗
We do! We sell all our stamps and other products through retailers. Please check our store locator to find a brick and mortar store near you: ironorchiddesigns.com/find-a-retailer/ You can also see this page for a list of well stocked online stores: ironorchiddesigns.com/online-stores/ .
I got the cubanelo tile stamp and it catches the color between the stamp it is hard to not get the paint in middle flat part of the image even with a little paint on the breier it was frustrating to wipe it off every time, any tips how to prevent it,? I had very little paint on !
Thank you so much for letting us know. Please reach out to your stockist to make sure you did not receive a defective stamp. The stockist should be able to let you know and have insight into what you may be doing wrong otherwise. It can definitely take some practice. ❤️❤️
I cut my stamps off keeping the backing on and have been keeps them in large baggies. One of my stamps got gooey and distorted. Is there a way to store the stamps when they are loose to prevent that in the future?
Hi Trish! Thank you for letting us know. That's awful and unusual. Please contact customer service through our website and send a picture so we can take care of this for you.😊
🦋Hooray, the IOD Sisters. I love all your videos, and you've helped me with all your products. Especially during this stressful time in all our lives, of this quarantined time. ❤️🇺🇸
Hi Jodi! It really all depends on the surface that you are stamping and what you're using it for. If you are stamping on wood or furniture then yes, you will want to seal it with a water based wood sealer 😊
You want to scuff the stamp with a 220 grit sand paper before the first time you use them. That gives some 'tooth' for the medium (ink, paint, etc) to grab onto. You only need to do the sanding the very first time - after that your stamp is considered "conditioned". Hope that helps, but if you want more stamping basics, you might like this: ironorchiddesigns.com/decor-stamps/

Love a video on masking please.
Is this an old recording or has Josie switched hair color again? Always fun to watch
This was pre-recorded before Josie colored her hair! 😄❤️ Thanks for watching!!
In the background you have your faux bricks. What paint colours did you use to make it so beautiful?
I don't remember but you can see some of the technique toward the end of this video (around minute 21): ua-cam.com/video/Lr0W4H2Ahu0/v-deo.html
What do you think about lint roller bolster?? Yay? Nay?
To stop things from rolling use cheap lint remover rolls for each side. Works great.
Great idea Cass!
@@IronOrchidDesigns ya, I read all the comments and saw several others made the same comment. I didn't notice how old this was!
Sheer awesomeness!!!
😄😄😄
Hi! love all your tutorials and your products. quick question can I use your ink on glass or will it smudge? Karima
Yes you can! You want to allow for a longer dry time, though. Here's a tutorial were we stamp on glass: ua-cam.com/video/1mBDyeKZ-rg/v-deo.html
What kind of paint are you using on "Property of the North pole" sack?

Hi Amy! Did you seal your paint before stamping? The ink may stick better to the chalk paint unsealed. Let us know and we can get it figured out with you🤗
Could you put some rocks or beans in the containers to weight it? Marlene
That might help to keep it from rolling but the best strategy is to bolster the piece to make sure it doesn't get away from you while stamping. :)
Trick: Use two lint rollers to bolster.
YASSSS!! Lint rollers would work perfectly! Thanks for the tip. :)
Thank you :)

I do have a question - I didn’t notice you sending the stamp. A lot of people I’ve been watching are saying to sand them - yay or nay? Or preference?
You want to scuff the stamp with a 220 grit sand paper before the first time you use them. That gives some 'tooth' for the medium (ink, paint, etc) to grab onto.
