You can put globs of Aleen's Tack it Again and Again on some of the sticker backing paper and let it "dry". It makes a decent removable glue dot.

I have an HP Envy 5330 all-in-1 that barely takes the GP cardstock. It is supposed to take photo paper, but I've never used it. What a wimp. I'd happily get another printer if it took heavy...

Also, I wonder if using Versamark before stamping with dye inks will help protect the stamp from staining so much in the first place.

Question Do dye inks reactivate color from previous stains?

I don't know how else to say it. I was making color swatches with a solid clear stamp, and as soon as I used the "soft rose" the stamp stained. I'm ok with that because I had always believed that it...

The Alley Way Stamps is going out of business.

I'm super disappointed since it's my favorite stamp company. :cry:

She's doing a liquidation sale on her website with the coupon code : everythingmustgo.

So sad.
