How to Stamp with Mandala Stamps
Make an impression with Mandala Stamp Packs and creating Mandala designs.
Mandala is an abstract and geometric pattern, usually in a circular form. Here are some tips, tools, and techniques to help you create your mandala designs!
Stamping Tools
Tools you will need:
- Mandala Design Stamp Pack (Z009934/Z009935/Z018002/Z018003)
- Stamping Blanks
- Stamping Hammer (TL00235/TL00277)
- Bench Block (A014415)
- Polishing Cloth (A002371)
- Stamp Enamel Marker
A helpful supply to have when creating your circular shape is getting the ImpressArt Stamp Guides. These guides are stickers that you peel off and lay over your stamping blank. Once your design is stamped these stickers are easily removable! They also have markers to help you evenly space out your stamping, especially if you are using letter stamps.
But for Mandala there is a circular, see-through sticker guide with diagonal lines to help space out your stamps.
A tip when stamping is to stamp from the center out. And when stamping from the center out, stamp closer to you and rotate to keep the stamping even. Once your design is complete peel off the guide. There will be small patches still stuck within the stamped areas, so make sure to remove it all before adding your enamel or brushing it over with a Sharpie to make your designs stand out. Rub your polishing cloth of the surface to remove excess enamel or markings.
