Don't insert an ink cartridge in your Rollagraph handle. Just roll the stamp across your pigment ink pad and then roll across your card/paper stock. Then sprinkle with embossing powder and heat as normal. Don't forget to "anti-static" your card/paper stock before stamping!
Rollagraph stamps are great for creating backgrounds and borders for your cards. You can also roll out strips and cut them up to layer onto your card fronts. You need to invest in a handle; a stamp; and an ink cartridge. You just put the 3 components together and roll away!
You can create your own stationary sets with a rollagraph stamp. Fold a piece of card in 1/2 and place it in the centre of a larger piece of notepaper grade paper. Roll your stamp diagonally across all the layers from the bottom corner to the top corner. Remove the card from the top and you have a decorated card and a bordered piece of stationary. Make in sets of 6 and tie the sets with a nice piece of ribbon with a pen attached. Ta da! Instant presents for teachers and friends.
To prevent yourself from "rocking" the stamp while rolling, just make sure you put your index finger along the top welded join on the rollagraph handle. This will steady your hand.
