Hi Deb! I have been working with solder since 2000 and first came across this technique learning stained glass soldering, believe it or not!! Always fun to do. Lots of people have learned to incorporate solder into their work which is awesome!
wonderful! I have graphite stamps that I use on my lampwork beads to press in designs....can these graphite stamps be used on hot solder for decorative stamping?
Excellent video Lynne! Very, very clever!!! Does the heat of the hot molten solder eventually damage the stamp's surface? Do they have to be coated with something first to protect them? If you tried them, what happens to the clear type stamps? Will try this today. TFS!!
I watched your tutorial, which is my favorite of several I found. I am using flux and a solder iron at 400 degrees, but my solder won’t stick to my copper and won’t spread evenly, and won’t take a stamp. Is that be because I’m not using a heat block? Could you tell us close to exactly the materials you recommend? Or point me to another of your videos? Thank you so much, it’s just beautiful!
Nice tutorial! thank you! I was wondering about the red stamps...I was at a garage sale the other day and the person was selling a huge load of stamps, but they look more pink than red. I don't know anything about stamps, are the pink ones same as the red ones?
They were probably dried out red rubber stamps. Some of my oldest rubber stamps have turned pink because I didn't care for them properly. Some have even crumbled.
Thanks Laurie. Thank you for the kind comment.
First time I’ve seen this technique. Great tutorial!❤
this was one of my favourite techniques when I was taught by you! sure do miss your classes Lynne!!
Il need to try this as I love the look. Could you please tell me what thickness of copper you are using? Thanks.
That was really cool. I haven't tried soldering yet, but I certainly want to. Thanks for the inspiration.
Loved this vid and find it inspirational.......definitely will try this. Seems easy.
Very cool! Can't wait to try it. I have a bunch of rubber stamp I used to use when I was working in clay. Thanks so much!
Such a cool technique! Thank you for sharing this!
Such a big help! Thank you for sharing this.
Thank you so much for sharing this technique! Can't wait to try it!
Vicki I use a tin and silver mix large bead soft solder. Canfield makes a good few.
Great video... I have been wanting to learn how to do this. Thanks!
Thank you Judy! You are very kind.
Thanks for sharing this technique, great easy to follow instructions.!
You are welcome Denise! Glad you enjoyed. Thank you for your comment!
Brilliant thanks! I need one of those heat blocks.
OMG I love this little book...is there a video or book for instructions I can purchase?
What a wonderful technique!!!

Would never of thought to use it as an accent instead of just for connection.
Very nice💕 what kind of soldering iron you are using for this kind of projects?
Nice. thank you. Nice explanation. love the silver/copper look.
great video. thank you for sharing ❤
Hi, please can you suggest / recommend a solving iron with the features you like . Much appreciated.
Linda, I am not certain about pink ones. I have only used the hard red rubber stamps.
wonderful! I have graphite stamps that I use on my lampwork beads to press in designs....can these graphite stamps be used on hot solder for decorative stamping?
What temperature is your solder iron at dial 8? Thank you
Very cool idea.
Super! Thank you so much for making such a great instructional:)

I have used the red rubber stamps several times and they are still good. The clear ones I have used, melted.
@@LynneSuprock How do you clean the stamp? With plain water?
Do you use a certain brand of stamps..I tried a red rubber stamp but it melted.
Thank you! This was so helpful!
Thank you Judy. You are very kind.
Love this!! Can I use brass under the solder or do I need to use copper?
Brass should.also work Debi!

Curious Kitteh I think it’s because the tip of your soldering iron isn’t clean. Did you try the sal ammoniac block?
Thank you sooo much for making this!!!
Thanks so much! Can this be done with steel stamps?
Do you have links for supplies? Thanks
Oh my gosh! That's sooo pretty! Where do you get these stamps at?
The stamps just need to be hard red rubber, found at any craft store. 🙂
thank you
Looks amazing
Thank you for your kindness. 🙂
Can i stamp a metal brass stamp into melted solder and not have the brass stamp stick to the solder?
Omgosh! Now I need to try this!
hehehe. easy peasy!! xo
What do you use to darken the recessed parts of the solder..? Love this technique, thank YOU
I use Novocan Black, a patina for metal.
Love it, gotta try it.
Thanks Peggy!
can you tell me if you are using soft solder....so confused, so many kinds of solder.
Wow!
omg thank you this is sooooo wonderful.
You are very kind. Thank you. Please share, if you have friends who would also enjoy 🙂

Wow i can do this
Have you ever used the liquid flux with this method?
Yes but it is not water soluable, so clean up not as easy.
Do you have a link to stamps that you prefer?
Anything with the red hard rubber will work nicely
I have only done it successfully with hard red rubber.
This is great,thank you so much for doing this here.What kind of copper are you using? ...TY
Thank you TY. I am using 24 gauge 100% copper.
My heat block just arrived!!!
Clare PoisonedAppleUK yes!

Not this music again! I just can't...
