Black PolyShrink Frame- Stamping with One Big Stamp

This method of decorating PolyShrink frames is as quick and easy as it is beautiful!

The frames above, left to right:

1) Ink- Opalite • Stamp- Toybox
Ink the upper right corner of the stamp with "Arctic Emerald", ink the lower left corner of the stamp with "Nordic Ice"

2) Ink- ColorBox MicaMagic • Stamp- Toybox
Ink stamp with "Antique Gold"

3) Ink- PearlEx Stamp Pad • Stamp- JudiKins
Ink stamp in "Interference Red"

(In addition to Opalite, MicaMagic and PearlEx inks, Brilliance inks may also be used.)

 

 

 

Instructions:

Turn the stamp rubber side up and ink an area a little larger than the size of the frame.

Here, we're using PearlEx ink in "Interference Red".

Place the frame, sanded side up, on a stack of paper. The paper will serve as a "cushion" and help you get a better image.

Stamp the image. Be sure to position the inked portion of the stamp to the frame. Apply even pressure and press hard. Gently lift the stamp.

The frame will probably stick to the stamp. Handling by the edges, remove the frame from the stamp.

Handle gently without touching the image.

Bake your frame. There's no need to allow drying time. The heat needed to shrink the frame will dry as well as set the ink.

Using a spray sealer after baking is recommended. Please see our Sealers Page for more information.
