I just got this stamping press today, and found your video really helpful. I really wish I'd watched it before opening my press, as within about 5 minutes of taking it out the magnets jumped out of the packaging, snapped together, and chipped lol So I will definitely be using my purple duck tape to make a ravioli 🙂
I got mine on Hsn and it came with stencils that have holes for the pegs. That is a great use of it. Also mine came with extra stamping plates (the clear top one) so you can put all your layers on different plates when you are using layering stamps.
I got this one just to do my turn about stamps but love it so much I use it for most things ! I found that I don't have to apply as much pressure with this as I have to with the Misti so much easier on my hands. I also like that I don't have to buy different sizes for small or large paper. Funny how Misti was the 1st one I bought then the Tim Holtz then this one and this is my favorite and Misti is my least favorite.
I love this as much as my MISTI. BTW...there are little handles on either side of the upper plate and they help you press down and get a great result. It is so economical to get a few of the upper plates... and maybe not have to remove every time you want to stamp something diff>.(try Michael’s half off coupons)
I can see how marvelous that would be for the big background stamps, too. Good idea on the turn-abouts. Even if it's only those two things that it will excel at in comparison to the other stamp positioners, that still makes it very useful.
Michael's sent out a 60% off one regular priced item coupon in my email today! I bought this press, & love it. I would never have thought to put the magnets into a duct tape diy package, & thank you so much for sharing the tip about it! I've never owned any kind of stamping kit & am excited with this product! I suck at stamping without it, so now I'll be a stamping fool! I'll even have to buy a bunch of dies & stamp kits so I can use my Sizzix with them. Yay! Thanks so much!!!
I've got mine on HSN and it came with an additional top plate (I've seen both the platform and additional plates at Joann's as well). I hadn't thought of the turnabout stamps! It might be easier than turning the paper. I like the open sides, but they need to come out with a plastic coated stamping pad for easy cleanup. I like the idea of the sticky sheets, if they ever come back in stock.
So, I have a suggestion that is random yet still pertains to this video which was wonderful! You need to have a decent sized mirror nearby for when Greg does jigs and other fun things then you can just hold up the mirror for “brief moments of whimsey”..... or a camera nearby to hold up when those moments happen and cut them into the video 😆
Thanks so much for this review, I had ordered one & I received it last week. There is another top elongated piece that allows you to go up & down along the pegs if you want to stamp a repeat pattern, etc. Cheers & hugs!
Go, Greg, with the cool ideas!!! You deserve a jig! I have to say, i think WRMK really think out their products well. They don't do everything, but what they do, they do well.
I got mine with extra plates from HSN. Hobby Lobby and Michael’s have them and the extra plates. I use it for turnabout stamps and layering stamps. It is fantastic!!!
I bought this and live it. When you get your turnabout products can you do a video ad to how to line up the small and large jig. I'm still off somewhere and cannot line them up. Please help. 😚
Thank you Alexandra for the demonstration of the We r Memory Keepers stamp platform. Overall I still enjoy my Misti the most out of all the stamping jigs, stamp platforms etc. I was wondering about this new one by WRM. I’ve seen it on HSN but it’s nice to to see your demonstration when it’s not in a hurry. Thanks, Katz
I have a WeR Stamping platform which is different than the one you are reviewing. I assume mine was their previous platform. It is great for using the Concord & 9th Turnaround Stamps. Better than Misti and Tim Holtz which I also have.
Great review and it will make me think how it would make stamping easier in some situations 😊 Alex your skin and makeup are just beautiful can you share your products? As a very fair skin girl it is so hard finding something light. You just glow 🥰
Thanks Lucy, I use Mac foundation, eyeliner pencil and mascara, a chanel blush and lipgloss, and I have eyelash extensions :-) thank you for your sweet words
You should check and/or edit your video as from what I can tell you are unable to flip it over and use the top side of the platform to stamp due to it needing the feet to keep the stamp elevated until you press down.
Ok. You have not helped me say to myself “Do I REALLY need this?” Nope. You have just helped me make the decision that yes this one looks really cool and I definitely should get this one! I have been debating about getting one for months. If I had seen one somewhere in person I surely would of boughten it already. Did you say the previous one did not have magnetic surface? Is there two versions of it now?
Thats correct, the old one didn't have a magnetic surface but is now discontinued the link in the description is the one i purchased and demo'd and is the newest version with magnets
Could I use as sticky sheet on the clear block and then adhere a wood mounted stamp on it? Are the pegs tall enough for wood mount to still use it to line up and repeat stamping if image didn’t come out clear?
It doesn't work for wood block stamps, but there are a lot of TH-cam videos about how to remove the stamp from the wood block if you want to go that route. I haven't done it yet, but I might change my mind since this platform makes it so much easier to get good results.
total newbie here i have just bought a die cutting and embossing machine do i need a stamp machine or does the die cutting do the same effect please many thanks
In case you haven't found an answer for your question yet, it depends on what you want to do. The 2 machines have very different functions. If you want to cleanly cut out shapes or patterns, your die cut machine is what you need. If you want to stamp very precisely, a stamp platform is what you need. I suggest you take a look at Stacey from Scrapbooking Made Simple - she's on YT & does a weekly class on different papercrafting skills. She's done a couple on die cutting which I think you would find very useful. Best wishes!
Stampin' Up! Stamparatus can do the "hinge step" stamping. Moving it over and repeating so that it looks like it's in action. That's the one I want...income tax time!
You can use it with any stamp that you could use with an acrylic block - think of it as a really big acrylic block, except it's a flat plate. FWIW, I'm really happy with this tool. The only issue I've found is that with the little bit of wiggle room that exists because the holes in the plate are slightly larger than the pegs, you can end up with thicker lines if you have to stamp an image more than once. (That's mentioned as a negative in the video.) However, as long as I'm careful to push the acrylic plate firmly against the pegs (which is much easier than it might sound), I get excellent results when I double-stamp. I've never used a MISTI, so I can't compare double-stamped impressions from a MISTI with what I get using the WRMK platform, but I'm completely satisfied with my stamped images.
You can also do multiple step stamping by putting the stamps in the corner and rotate the plate.

The sticky sheets are due back in mid-feb we will post on our HH facebook page and in the weekly newsletter once they are available again

Thank you for the review. I was wondering about this product, but I still don’t see one that is any better than my Misti’s. Saving me money.
Very informative and your review is helping me to make my decision on which stamping tool to buy.
lmao.. saw the sticky sheet thing comin' ... Nice one Alex! Glad that Greg has been paying attention. Good hubby!
That was great want it! Loved that $%*/!!!! 11:36 !
Go, Greg, with the cool ideas!!! You deserve a jig!

Your hair is fabulous!! Hi Greg!
There is a pattern maker top that is skinnier and you can move it to use on different pegs.
Terry Banet where do you get that one?

There is a video on it here th-cam.com/video/1a09sikIW2Y/w-d-xo.html@@Amywazwaz06
Got mine at Michael's. Still love my MISTI...LEARNING to love my TH Platform - just got it (TH) for Christmas.
You can buy additional top plates, which is great for multi-step stamping.
So excited . . . played with mine today for the first time. Like it better than the MISTI!

Thanks Lucy, I use Mac foundation, eyeliner pencil and mascara, a chanel blush and lipgloss, and I have eyelash extensions :-) thank you for your sweet words
I just got mine and love it! Do have the Misti and the previous WMK.
Love your set up ! Great work
I was wondering what is the name of the black Matt you all work on ? I believe it has measurements?
I have thought about getting this one for quite a while now.
A tip: you can watch movies at Flixzone. Me and my gf have been using it for watching a lot of movies these days.
@Cory Kylen Definitely, have been using flixzone} for since december myself :)
Can you PLEASE show how to use this with Concord & 9th Turnabout stamps and Gina K's wreath builder? Thank you!
I have done separate videos with my top tips on using both of those tools :-)
Thank you, I will try to find them to watch.
I would DEFINITELY keep that THICK acetate pkging!!!...For cards.
With all the Stamping platforms out there, which is the most effective with silhouette stamps? Which one gives the best coverage?
I would go for tim holtz or misti
You should check and/or edit your video as from what I can tell you are unable to flip it over and use the top side of the platform to stamp due to it needing the feet to keep the stamp elevated until you press down.
First, I loooooooooooove your hair color. Second, thx for the duck tape idea and lastly you’re really talented and enjoy your posts.
Thanks for the demo......the sticky sheets seems to be a practical thing........................ha ha ha ha
Would like to see a demo with a silhouette stamp.
Thanks for your time happy birthday.. as a 3-month subscriber about to rcv month #2 do i get a discount also:)
I Saw An Accessory kit for the Stamp Press on WRMK Creativation video xXXx

Mine was the version just BEFORE this one - it DID NOT come with the foam pad... Do you know if they've made one we can get for those?
Question: how do you make a cricut mat sticky again(I’ve cleaned it with baby wipes and it’s lost it’s stick after couple times)
Great video.What is the size of the sticky sheets? I could only find the size 2 1/2 by something.👧🏻
Hi Lyn, the sticky sheets have sold like wildfire! Right now only the small ones are available the larger ones will be back in stock in feb

Can the misti creative corner be used in this
I finally just bought them & they do work great with this system!
What sorts of things can you do with them? I'm trying to decide if it would be worth the expense.
Stampin' Up! Stamparatus can do the "hinge step" stamping. Moving it over and repeating so that it looks like it's in action. That's the one I want...income tax time!
can you use clear stamps or just w r products

Love the info but u and ur hubby crack me up!!
The turnabout stamping is what Gina K’s wreath set does.
Thanks for sharing darling x
i love you're hair
cool 😎
Beckysalazar likebundle works home like you soon bundle
😂
I think the Misti or the Tim Holtz are both much easier to use. I like WRMK but on this occasion I'm afraid they have been outdone ....
she would just drive me crazy on making nouthing and talking about sum polka dot tape or something
