New Stamping Guide

[lesleybd]

Hi, I watched a video of a new octagonal template for stamping circular patterns and now I can't find it. It was called a Tondo but that's not the correct spelling. It's made by a well known stamper. Does anyone know what I'm talking about?

I found this...

And this one is how a woman made her own template...

Just found the one you mentioned... Tond-Oh!

Thank you, Pam.

I've found that it's called a Tond-Oh!

It's very similar in concept to the ones in the videos.

I like the look of it but it's very expensive IMHO specially when you add postage to the UK. I will probably make one of the other templates instead. I'ts not something I'd use every day.

That looks a lot like the Gina K templates in function.

this is the how to on it-start at 6:50.

I like yours bc I think it might be easier to turn the whole thing? Might be six of one, half a dozen of the other...

[lesleybd]

Yes. It produces the same result through a slightly different method. 

The advantages of the Tond-Oh! as I see it are that you don't have to keep moving and re-aligning the paper and that you can use a slightly larger piece of paper because it can go right to the edge of the Tond-Oh! With the wreath builder your paper has to be smaller to allow for the frame round the edge.

They are both good ideas developed from a concept that has been around for a long while. :-)

My mind went to this new stenciling tool, which is clearly not an octagon, but interesting anyway...!

I just discovered a new company as well as another rotating system...plus the stencils in this system are similar to turn about stamps. So kind of an all in one system. 

Ardyth did a great vid on it. 

If people like cute mermaids-she has several sets where they are doing things other than swimming.

This reminds me too of a card I made years ago with the octagon in mind, but it was with a cut out image (or you could use a punch, but that would take some mathematical work, or finicky trial and error).  As you can see I did not have a "Happy Father's Day" stamp.  Remember the paper snowflakes we learned to make in elementary school?

Circle geometry is fascinating.

Back when the MISTI first became the rage, I found different shaped templates here:

I just recently discovered a collection of different templates from The Gentleman Crafter:

Interesting indeed but way too many pieces involved.
