TOO MUCH PRESSURE YOU WILL DAMAGE YOUR HEATING PLATFORM.

Your letterpress image is now complete!

impression on paper, cardstock and your other favourite mediums.
Inking your chosen Hotfoil Stamp before placing down the cardstock.
Try
Pigment ink works best with your Hotfoil Stamp as other ink may dry too
quickly. Ensure not to over ink and clean off all the ink after use and dry your
Hotfoil Stamp to avoid ink drying in the intricate design.
1.
Your Heating Platform should glide smoothly through your
Note
