Tips from the show

The stamp is versatile and works for both cocktails and mocktails.
You can use just part of the stamp design by stamping through an aperture or in a corner rather than using the full stamp.
All the IMALA stamps are designed to work together, so you can integrate multiple stamps in one design.
