NEW changes to rubber stamps!

We'd like to announce two exciting developments to our rubber stamp line!




Darkroom Door stamps (rubber stamp sets, Backgrounds, Photo Stamps and Word Block Stamps) are now sold with EZ Mount cling foam included!

This is awesome because:
- Allows you to purchase the one stamp without needing to purchase a full sheet of cling foam separately.
- Cling foam is adhered to the stamp sets, simply trim the stamps individually ready for use.
- Single stamps (Backgrounds, Photo Stamps and Word Blocks) are ready to use straight away!

Stamp sets also have a new clear DVD sized storage case.

This is awesome because:
- There's a labelled spine for easy identification
- Stamps are easily stored vertically or horizontally
- DVD size case means they can be stored in any of the DVD sized storage solutions on the market - bookcases, DVD boxes etc.
- Clear back, so the entire stamp sheet can be seen while still in the storage case
- Thinner storage case, which reduces space needed for storing stamps in your craft area!
- Stamps cling easily to the inside of the case while not in use

Here is a video to show how the new stamp storage case works:

I've also created a video to show how I like to trim the rubber stamps to they're ready for use. You can watch that here:

Thank you once again for your valued support of our rubber stamps!
