I happened to see this video the other day that Tim did with tips on the stamp platform. At the beginning (1:45) he shares a tip how to make the rules on it brighter! I did it yesterday and it's brilliant for my poor eyes! Thought I'd share in case anyone else wants to give it a try! Tim Holtz Stamp Platform Tips

streetscrapper - Thank you so much for sharing. Two benefits - it really worked and I had to pull out my paints!!! My paint was a little dry so I added water and used a paintbrush to apply and a paper towel to remove excess. Took about 2-3 applications for it to show up but it looks great!!

TFS! I got a platform for Christmas but haven't had a chance to play with it yet. Maybe this weekend!

It looks great! And it's super simple to do!

You have always been a part of the heist. You're only mad now because you don't like your cut.

I don't have a Tim Holtz stamp platform but I had to watch the video to find out the trick! That is an awesome idea and it does make the rulers so much more visible!

Ok, those numbers are so dark I actually didnt even realize they were there! I’ll be altering mine tonight.

Done. What a difference. For anyone who’s going to do this be sure to wipe it off gently. I used a paper towel and it took off too much. I think that’s why Tim used his finger.
