"out of box experience" I love that and thank you for doing this. I love hearing/seeing someone's true reaction especially as you're a crafter sharing with fellow crafters. This seems pretty cool! Thanks again for sharing.

@LVHandcrafted 29 дней назад

Thank you so much, my friend! I appreciate you checking out my reviews! You're so sweet! 💖

@raehenderson 29 дней назад

My son bought me one several years ago and I love it!!! They rarely need re inking and the quality of stamping is wonderful!!! Being able to design your own stamp is a game changer!

@LVHandcrafted 29 дней назад

I agree! I'm loving it so far. Btw, where do you get more stamp sheets? I have found a couple places but not a single place that sells all sizes.

@@LVHandcrafted @LVHandcrafted I just always bought mine directly from Silhouette. They've never been out of stock and the prices are comparable to Amazon etc. Dunno if this helps? BTW, I saw where the Mint had gone up to about $150 but now reduced to $50? Funny! $50 is what my son paid a few years ago LOL

Congratulations on your purchase. Hopefully if the Mint receives more exposure Silhouette will start back producing more accessories. I've had mine since it launched. I'm glad they haven't discontinued it. I love Silhouette products but they're not good at promoting them. After I ink my stamp I lightly go over it with a wet wipe to remove excess ink. This keeps you from wasting ink stamping it off.

@LVHandcrafted Месяц назад

Oh thank you so much for the tip! Can I ask you where you get more stamp sleeves? Particularly the sizes in this kit?

@zoedoodle9824 Месяц назад

I have a Mint as well! It's a great tool when you need a sentiment that isn't in your collection. I often find something similar to what I want and even combined with a little graphic flourish on esty for a $ or 2. A couple years ago I needed a Happy Thanksgiving stamp and found the perfect perky scripty greeting with little sheaves of wheat as a flourish. As to inking, I usually to do light colors first. Put it on, let it sink in, repeat until it doesn't absorb it so quickly. Then put the next color on. The color lasts a long time if you are using them regularly but fades out if not used for a long time.

@LVHandcrafted Месяц назад

Thank you so much for the inking tip! I was just thinking about trying this... inking all of one color first. then stamping it out until it's clean. Then inking up the next color. I want to use up all the ink on this first stamp and try it out now. LOL. I'm still waiting on my order for more stamp sheets. 😄 Can I ask you where you get your stamp sheets from? It was hard to find them on Amazon for the sizes that come in the box.

@sassysllc Месяц назад

Friend, I'm so excited to see you do this. I've looked at this machine for a long time, but somehow had the impression that the stamp itself was temporary, and not just the ink. I used to own a stamp maker very similar to the stamp forge. It's still available from Amazon, but is no longer branded by whatever card-maker/scrapbooker I bought it from. It was.....very messy. I would LOVE to know if this new option is better because I clearly have a desire to make stamps and sentiments!!!! This was an awesome video!

@LVHandcrafted Месяц назад

Thanks so much, friend!! I'll keep you posted on how this compares to the stamp forge. The relief on this is fairly slight. It's rubber but it'll be interesting to see over time if it flattens at all. Otherwise, I think this should be pretty long lasting. We shall see

@artsyfaithrae Месяц назад

Hola Linh! Ohhhh the possibilities ✨Definitely loving this and lol I’ve not heard of it either 😮. Wondering if you can mount the stamp on that mounting cushion (I have some but name escapes me 😂 since I haven’t used it in ages) that would allow you to use it in a stamping platform - I’m thinking so🤔. Can’t wait for your next vid❣️ TFS💜

@LVHandcrafted Месяц назад

Hi Rae! It's pretty nifty, right??? I'm glad I'm not the only one who hasn't heard of it before. LOL. I think I've heard of a mounting cushion for unmounted red rubber, but I don't think this would work because the rubber on this is pretty thin... like 1/16" I think. I think red rubber is closer to 1/4"? I dunno... I'll have to research more. But I definitely dont' think it's necessary to have a bunch of blocks the same size. :) I love that they made them interchangeable.

@created2bless322 Месяц назад

In the long run you can save money. My work information is different from my personal etc.....I would definitely use this!

@LVHandcrafted Месяц назад

That's what I'm thinking too! I can make return address stamps instead of having to constantly buy mailing labels. And I can have one for my personal and for my LV Handcrafted mail that I send out.

@LVHandcrafted Месяц назад

I'm so glad I found this and the stamp forge before I bought more self-inking stamps! I feel I've already saved money just with that alone

@BoGilmore Месяц назад

Hi Linh. That looks more promising that the We R.😊❤

Yes, most definitely! Lol the problem is getting more stamps. Lol I ordered them but they are on "special order" so it's taking forever to get to me.

@LVHandcrafted Месяц назад

Hi Pat! I've found the Silhouette website to be the lowest price for the stamp sheets but they don't have all the sizes. Everywhere else the prices seem to vary by quite a lot. Same with the inks.. On their website it's only $2 per ink bottle.

@camic878 Месяц назад

Can you use an ink pad with these?

@LVHandcrafted Месяц назад

I've seen other folks on YT try using different ink pads and some said they were successful. Ranger Archival ink is what I remember working really well. But versamark ink for embossing did not work very well. I haven't tried it myself yet.

@pebblesstleonards Месяц назад

I thought the Silhouette Mint had been discontinued...? 🤔

@LVHandcrafted Месяц назад

I got mine on Amazon and they still have the ink and stamp sheets on their Silhouette America website. The thing is that you have to explicitly search for them, which maybe means they are just going to sell what they have left and then call it good. Part of me wants to just stock up just in case. LOL

@pebblesstleonards Месяц назад

That's probably a good idea. Supplies are only going to be available whilst stocks last and, as you've already found, some are hard to source. It's a shame as it's a super product... Have fun! 😊

@@pebblesstleonards I agree 100% it was so easy to use. I wanted to make more right away but I'm still waiting for my order from BH photo, which seems like the only reasonable price place to get the two sizes that came in the kit. I'm definitely going to order more from silhouette also . I wanted to see how I like the mint compared to the new stamp forge before going all in. Lol 🤣

@knoctopus Месяц назад

Is it possible to use this as a conventional stamp? Could you put it on EZ Mount and use it like a rubber stamp?

@LVHandcrafted Месяц назад

My guess is you can but it is very thin compared to a red rubber stamp. And it seems the rubber soaks in the ink a bit, so cleaning might also be different. That's why I also got the stamp forge because that one is more like your classic -- ink and stamp type of stamp. And it's supposed to be photopolymer, so we'll see.
