Like any other vendor, a qualified stamper is essential to successful culmination of your project. To choose the most qualified company, keep these tips in mind:

• Meet with your stamper at the beginning of the design project, and provide the stamper as much information about the project as possible.
• Examine samples of the stamper's previously produced work to make sure the stamper has expertise at the same level of intricacy and difficulty called for in your piece.
• Encourage communication between the stamper and the printer.  Often, the stamper will be able to recommend a printing company familiar with producing printed and stamped work. In most cases, it's best to select the stamper before the printer.
• Work with a foil stamper who will obtain sample rolls of foil and sample stock for the project you have in mind.  Use these to test your dies before the print run.
