Using the Stamping Straight Tape, secure the ornament to the stamping block. This will ensure that the ornament doesn’t move around while you’re stamping.

Use a stamp guide to evenly space out your message. 

How To - Metal Stamping

Place the stamp on top of the ornament aligning it with the stamping guide. Pull the stamp towards yourself until you feel a slight resistance. The Impress Art logo should be facing towards you while you’re stamping.

Looking for more in-depth instructions? Check out this post if you're just getting started!

Strike the stamp with the Stamping Hammer while holding the stamp firmly in place with the side of your hand anchored to the table.

Repeat this process until you’ve finished your entire message. 

Remove the stamping guide once you’ve finished.

Add Crystals & Enamel

Make your ornament even more special by adding some sparkle to your Christmas ornament with the Crystal Setter kit. 

Choose your desired setting stamp and create an indentation with the stamp.

How to add crystals to metal stamping blanks

Be careful not to position the punch to close to the side of the ornament or on top of any letters.

Strike the stamp with the Ergo Angle Hammer with medium pressure to create a round indentation. It should be deep for the crystal stone to sit inside of it without protruding.

Go over and indentations with a Stamp Enamel Marker. Gently dab the excess marker with a paper towel and allow it to dry. Wipe away any excess to reveal the highlighted impressions.

Using the G-S Hypo Cement dab a small amount of glue inside the indentation. Place a flat-backed crystal on top of the divot pressing it firmly into place. Allow it to dry completely.

Secure a ribbon to the top of the ornament.

Now you have a hand-stamped Christmas ornament that’s sure to become a special keepsake for years to come.
