Was on Global's website and noticed these clear pattern stamps...has anyone ever used them and if so do you have any pictures? Just interested in seeing what the end result is.

Thanks.

For some reason the attachment didn't attach, I'll try again.

I discovered these stamps a few months ago. I love them, and they are so much cheaper. I used them on my birds nest cake, its in my photos.

I've used them lots of times. I get them at Michaels with a coupon, it's cheaper that way! icon_biggrin.gif

Thank you. I colored them with yellow, orange and green luster dust, then dusted the whole cookie with pearl dust...and pink luster too.

Michaels didn't have them for a long time but now they are in the scrapbooking section. JoAnns has an entire section for them near the stamping stuff.

That's what I was thinking. I wanted to get a few and try them.
What about rubber stamps? I have a bunch of Stampin'up stamps that I haven't used.

In the clay section at Jo Ann fabrics, I found a set of mini cutters. I think 12 to a pack and I found texture mats. I got 2 in a pack, one design is swirly, the other is floral.

I use rubber stamps too. Just make sure that before you use any clear or rubber stamp on fondant you wash it in hot soapy water. Then dry it well. Then keep it in a place "for food only" so you don't use it with paper and glue products. icon_confused.gif

sugarflour, that is SOOOO pretty. Would you mind explaining again how you used the luster dust? Did you mix it with alcohol and then just painted it on the raised pattern of the stamp? TIA

Thanks Adevag. I used a small brush and and just the petal dust and brushed each impression with the different dust colors. I went over each flower a few times until I got the colors as dark as I wanted them. I did the same thing with the green for the vine. Then I just went over each cookie lightly with luster dust to give it a little sparkle.

I actually just tried using them this last week. I found a pack with flowers and different swirls. I rolled out my fondant and then pushed the swirls all over and then used a heart cutter. I added silver dragges at the end of the swirls. So, each heart is different and unique but very elegant looking. The possibilities are endless. The picture isnt very bright but you get the idea.

Thanks for all your sharing, that is a great idea.
Kuuisma, the whole CC site is having problem with anything from the forums to uploading photos, it seems. But it sounds very neat. Just like you said, this opens up endless decorative design possibilities. Very exciting!
