Aww thanks I’ve made another one of these, I must remember to add a photo of the pair that inspired it. I’ve got a small flock of three boys, Tiny Minty and Robin. They all adore each other but Tiny and Robin are very close and often snuggle up like this.

Thanks How come you are trying to cut stampboard? What size are you trying to make it into, or are you after non standard shapes?

Versafine is easy to get, try joanna sheen (free P&P) or Cre8tive online: http://www.cre8tiveonline.co.uk/catalog/index.php?cPath=42_340. There are a list of rubber stamp retailers on the Stamping tab at the top, the ones I use most are listed at the top of that page

I love Versafine as you can watercolour over it, the ONyx Black is a superb rich black and its easier to clean off stamps than Stayz on

Cre8tive Online also have a range of colours, the other one I use a lot is the Vintage sepia. When funds allow I’d collect more classic colours like grey, dk blue, dk purple etc. Its a lovely ink and works so well on detailed stamps.

Hope that helps.

Thanks the glaze is UTEE (Ultra thick embossing enamel) Just apply clear embossing ink, then go over it with the powder. Repeat 3 times for the nice raised finish and it seals in the ink. Punch your hole before you emboss though
