Is the stamp plastic or metal? If it was metal, did you heat it up first?

it is brass,,  i  press it 3 times  no heat

i set it on a 4'' x 4;''  piece of metal.  press the center, raise the press,slide the metal over press it 

then slide it to the other side press it

as long as you do not move the stamp from the leather. you can move it anywhere

  and a 24'' cheater bar on the handle

When you press your stamp(s) ~ press and hold down for at least 30 seconds, a minute, even two minutes is better. It helps to prevent the leather from reforming and softening the stamped image
