I was so excited that I had to try it right away :) I tested it quickly with both the plates that came with the set and my own photopolymer plate - and they both worked nicely. I did have a hard time applying the ink evenly on the plates with the mini-brayer that came with the set. I got ink all over the place...
So if I took my time and used the speedball 6" brayer, I am pretty sure I can get some nice little letterpressed cards.
Without any ink and I still got a very good impression |
Too much ink on the left. Uneven ink on the right. |
2nd impression without reapplying ink. |
Lego man is from a photopolymer plate. "I Love You" is the plastic plate that came with the set. |
