Carla, you're sweet! thanks so much for the tips surrounding the use of inkjets. My own personal model came with the office computer, our "War Horse" for the group blog I monitor and update. It has a good scanner, but the print jobs it gives are not so good. My last IUOMA blog is on this topic, interestingly. Having such an "All In One" has its drawbacks. But printing resolution seems a difficult one for even those most worthy to judge. Ah, well.....

 

A trade!!! Right on!!! I'll message you our Studio's address right away!!!! :) i'm waiting for a layer to dry on my last one for Karen Champlin as of this writing. Just finished a spring themed packet of goodies for Marguerite, but out  of stamps!!!! Yikes!

Guess I could finish a couple more ATC originals for you. Karen likes her 3 for 3. Are you on?

;)

Oh, BTW, I am assuming that if someone posts in here, they want to receive ATCs... am I right?  I'm just working through the group till I send some to everyone. ;)

Yes!  I used inkjets before I had the laser printer.  You just have to make sure the self-stick paper you buy is suitable for inkjets.  The inks work quite differently so that's important.  I made tons of artistamps on my inkjet and you can too. ;)  Any inkjet will work to a point but some don't survive sunlight as well as others.  Still, they will last a while, no matter which inkjet you use.  

 

BTW, I've sent my first three ATC Rebels envies out today - to Angie, David Stafford, and Arty Em!  More going out in the next few days.

Ah! to have our own laser printer here! In our community, we have 4 inkjets locally.

*sigh*

Is there a way to get a similar result using any inkjet?

Yep.  One of the good things left over from when I was making my living from graphic arts and photography. ;)

Ah, Prosthet, you were the lucky one! ;)

 

Adamandia - I make stickers using self-stick paper in my color laser printer... some are translucent, some are opaque.  In this case, I'll make them opaque.  I send self-stick artistamps to everyone I correspond with and, in this case, when I make stickers from someone else's artwork, I usually only send them to the one who made the art and keep some for myself to use (with their permission).

Love the stamp logo also David - and Samuel, those Che Guevara ATCs are wonderful.

David Stafford - is it okay if I make a sticker of your ATC Rebels, a Division of IUOMA image?  I'd be happy to send you a bunch of them!  That's a great logo. :D

I always have hundreds of my ATCs on hand - make them all the time - so I'm up for trading with anyone and everyone.  I make hand-drawn, collage, softblock carving prints (I carve my own stamps from drawings I've made or directly onto the softblock material), digital art made in drawing programs on the computer, scans of large works of mine which I shrink down, altered photographs and un-altered photographs (always my own work).  I have also crocheted and knitted ATCs, made them from all kinds of odd materials, found objects, and even metal and wood.  Anyway, I love to experiment and I love challenges.

 

You can see some of my ATCs here.  (click on the ATCs tab)
