Our Artist in Residence answers your questions
Q: Jennifer asks: "Can I print digital stamps on watercolor paper with an inkjet printer?"
A: You'll want to be sure that your watercolor paper will feed through the printer - I would recommend a 90# weight if you're not sure of your printer's capabilities with heavier papers. The type of ink is another thing to consider. Some photo-friendly printers use pigment ink, which will resist bleeding when water is applied. If your printer uses dye-based ink, you can try heat setting, letting the ink cure overnight, or applying a workable fixative before painting. Here are some threads in our forum with more tips and tricks:

Feedback From Past Tutorials
PippiLou's comment in our forums will be helpful with the Glitter Paper tutorial: "Recently I was trying to find the best way to keep glitter adhered to die cuts so that it didn't rub off, etc. After trying multiple products (Zig Pen, Art Glitter glue, Glossy Accents, Matte Medium, Mod Podge), the one that worked was Mod Podge. Glitter stayed put."
