Martha Stewart Let Me Down a Bit


I nearly tripped over myself trying to get to this stamp by Martha Stewart the moment I saw it hanging on the rack at A.C. Moore.
I have to say that I was a little disappointed when I inked it up because the ink kept beading up on it. I tried several tricks to condition the stamp, but nothing worked. Oh well. I still cranked out about five of these cards and I think they turned out alright. I just wish the image was more crisp. Sigh..

    Try chalk ink. It seems to work for me on all "disappointing" stamps. I LOVE it! I don't know if you can have metallic chalk tho.
