Thanks for sharing Jon.

If it had been a username I didn't recognise, I probably wouldn't have looked.

Holy crap - none of you mentioned the big typo! (now fixed, except for the main thread!).

Yeah, I'll admit: I wanted to put the title up, as is, to see who trusted me. http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/bb204/EnvoyC/emotes/danceman_l.gif

Hmmm, I guess I have a different definition of erotic.

Where were the hunky guys???????

I sent this to my brother who loves stationery. He said "Lovely, but I wish I could SMELL those pencils."

Sad to say I know exactly what he meant!

Guess what? I found it right here (http://witandwhistle.com/shop/stamps/better-than-an-email-stamp/).

How about that?

I agree with previous posters, this was FAR from erotic, but a *good read*, nonetheless. =)
Thanks, Jon.

Almost as sexy as the book, 'Adventures in Stationery - A Journey Through Your Pencil Case'.

A friend got me a couple of pencils for my birthday. Her daughter thought I was really odd when I sat there sniffing them for a while!

I'm still having a hard time convincing myself I shouldn't order that "Email" stamp. In the meantime, here are the two stamps I put into regular use when mailing items:

It's funny (a little weird) to describe such photos as erotic. I did like the photos - for instance, how those envelopes were addressed gave me ideas (not erotic ones) (heh).

If you decide to go for it, maybe you could order 2 and sell one to me near the end of August, using my FL shipping address? :bounce:

The photos of the lovely lettered envelopes were my favorites.

I ordered two stamps from Wit & Whistle as soon as I saw the original post in this thread, and they arrived yesterday. By happy coincidence, two Color Box pigment stamp pads (brown and green) arrived from Amazon a couple of days earlier. The stamp pads were on back order for several months, and I had almost forgotten about them.

For those who use ink stamps, how does one clean them after use, and how frequently? I suppose this isn't much of a concern if you dedicate each pad to a single ink color, but if you want to switch colors from time to time, what's the recommended cleaning protocol?

Many thanks to all - -

I wasn't even aware this was possible. I'm from the days when you went to the office supply store and bought either a black or red stamp pad. I have one red one and a small bottle of stamp pad ink (like roll-on deodorant) that I use. I'm interested in other options!

Jon - Here's a link to ColorBox pads on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_2?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=Color+Box++stamp+pad

I should have "read the instructions" before posting my question. The ink is archival after it dries. The blurb on the back of the pad says, "Permanent when embossed. Clean with water." I take this to mean you should clean the stamp with water, presumably before the ink dries (?)

Tips from anyone with actual experience are always appreciated.

"embossed" means when you apply a heat gun with embossing powder, to make the color turn into a raised, dimensional ink. If you haven't zapped it with a heat gun, I'll bet the stamp can still be cleaned with a bit of soap and water.

There are cleaning pads with sprays and almost every brand has their own set. The easiest and probably least expensive way is to use baby wipes (alcohol and perfume free) stored in a large ziplock bag to keep in the moisture. If you ever go to any of the 'industry shows' you will see variations on that although some do make their own cleaners. Unless you are going to stamp several items, cleaning should be done after each use and certainly in between colours.

Yow. Way too much work. Dedicated ink per stamp it is!

lol. it really doesnt take long to clean. most of us clean ours between colours and also when we are done using it for the day. You dont have to be super fastiduous unless staining of the rubber bothers you. can always just stamp off onto a damp napkin too.
