Check the artwork size and the sealing process separately. If every impression loses the same fine detail, the design may need attention; if results vary, look at the wax and release technique.

Inspect the design at seal size
Tiny lettering, narrow gaps and very fine lines may be difficult to read in a small wax impression. Compare the result with the approved artwork. A simpler stamp version can be more useful than increasing pressure on a design that is too crowded.
Use a consistent amount of wax
Too little wax may leave part of the design unsupported. Too much can spread beyond the intended area. Test on spare material with the same wax and stamp so you can compare results without risking finished invitations.
Let the seal set before lifting
Avoid twisting or dragging the stamp as it releases. Follow the wax supplier’s instructions and keep the stamp face clean and dry. Do not use unapproved oils or chemicals as a release aid; they can affect the stationery or the finished seal.
Send a photo when asking for help
Show the stamp face, several impressions and the wax product you use. Include the intended seal size. Those details help distinguish an artwork issue from a process issue and make it easier to advise whether a revised custom stamp is needed.
