I have some and they work fine. I usually lay the paper on top of the stamp. I have been waiting for the large A5 stamps. Of course, I had to tape
today's show and thought i had missed them, but they were still available when I got home I already have some enormous stamps (8x6 and 6x6) and they are good for just using part of the image. Alison |

I did not see the show, but have heard nothing but good comments about the stamps even though they are foam.

i really like the range of foam stamps qvc has had on lately, the big a5 stamps were really good, iv never seen stamps that big before. but with them being
foam i worry they may not last long before the get damaged i dont know. Please let me know how you get on with them they did look great. I didnt buy anything
either as i ordered the big bite yesterday - carnt wait untill it gets here lol.

I just clean them the way I do wooden stamps - a quick run over with a baby wipe or a spray with stamp cleaner. The actual image is rubber, or a resin. It is only the backing that is foam, they aren't foam stamps, though you do get those. I have wondered about unmounting them and putting them on ezmount. I will if the backing starts to go. Alison |

I have quite a few of the foam stamps, bought them through qvc germany about 2 years ago. I use them a lot and they're still as good as new.
And as Alison said just clean them the same way you do your wooden or unmounted stamps. Barbara x

Have seen these foam stamps for a while and they do appear to give a good image and are very good value. Ali x

I also have some of these great stamps and they are easy to use and no problem to clean.
Just baby wipe or Stazon cleaner for me, don't try putting them under tha tap lol I missed the show yesterday set sky+ to record and for some reason it failed. Have to watch video replays on QVC. Love Cynthia x |

Just ordered the set of 3 romantic stamps. They are in the clearance section at £9 plus postage so thought it would be worth a try - lovely images. Tess x

I have quite a few of these stamps, I took the foam off the back yesterday, as I prefer to usr acylic/rocker blocks. And because I have too much STUFF in my
craft room

I have quite a few of those stamps from qvc and they are lovely, and easy to use, and i took the backs of my stamps yesterday for the same reason.

I now have several of these foam stamps (including a boxed set of animals I won on ebay about 3 years ago and was shocked that they were foam all through!!). I
love them and they stamp so well. With the biggest ones I lay the paper over the inked stamp and brayer it. Needs a good dye ink, pigment ink doesn't seem
to work as well.
I also gave them a good wash with hot water and washing up liquid before stamping, to get rid of coating or they 'bobble'. I wash them under the tap to clean as I'm a bit wary of using stazon cleaner on them. If dirty, I use sticky stuff remover and wash off with w/u liquid and hot water. I ordered the new big ones yesterday!! Janet Just noticed some of you don't put the in water. I'm afraid I always scrub all of my stamps with a soft toothbrush over warm water and detergent and rinse under the tap. I don't submerge them, but I do get them pretty wet!! Never had a problem in over 14 years of stamping and have lovely clean stamps!!
