Place washer on stamping block. Use stamp tape to secure the washer to the stamping block so it doesn’t move while stamping.
Stamp desired message around the bottom half of the washer. Place your stamp on the blank and lightly drag it towards the outside perimeter of the washer, until the outside edge of the stamp is even with the outer edge of the blank. Hold stamp flat and firmly in place by anchoring the side of your hand on workspace. Then strike stamp once with medium force using Metal Stamping Hammer. Repeat to complete desired word. As you work, turn the stamping block. This will ensure that the stamp is facing the correct direction. Repeat technique to finish stamping remaining washer blanks.
TIP: If the stamp has an ImpressArt logo, make sure it is facing you so that the impression is stamped in the correct direction.
Highlight impressions with Stamp Enamel. Wait 3-5 minutes and then dab the excess enamel into the impressions with a paper towel before lightly wiping it away from the surface of the washers.
To complete the necklace, thread chain through each of the washers, making sure that the washers are in size order and that the stamped sides are facing the same direction.
