April Zoom meeting card front flap opened

Decided to show the card with the front flap opened so you could see what I meant about the distress ink refills. They pretty much beaded up on the gel plate.

Also you can see a little bit lighter area on the seahorse, just under his belly and lower part of fin. It turns out completely blank on a stamp platform! It was better stamped on Stamper's Secret Weapon (foam) and i did go in and add a few dots with a black Micron pen. That area of the stamp is depressed a little bit so when sandwiched between two hard pieces of plastic it doesn't make contact. It needs a cushion and a little extra pressure in that area.

I'm supposed to be cleaning my craft room and purging. Normally if a stamp is this much trouble I will toss it, but I really kind of like it and wanted to make it work!

What would you do? Keep or purge?

Love the background even though it beaded up. Keep the stamp - it looks fine here and it is such a pretty stamp! Very Happy

If you don't know what it is supposed to look like it looks good to me, I would say keep it

My colors are very similar to yours. And mine totally beaded up as well. I then tried the Avery Elle pigment refills and they worked a little better. I think the seahorse is such a cool stamp for this.

Very nice. You did a good job with your troublesome stamp. I have had those problems too. TFS. Daria
