Friday's Favorites - New & Cute

I had so much fun yesterday playing with some of the new size-A stamp sets from Close To My Heart! I've been meaning to pull them out for awhile and finally got around to it yesterday.

CTMH has five different sizes of stamp sets, size A being the smallest up to size E (usually alphabets). Recently the company reduced the price of their size A stamp sets to just $7.95. This is really fantastic news because it makes it that much easier to get started in stamping. Whether you're a complete beginner who would love to learn how to make your own cards or a scrapbooker who would like to add some extra flair to your pages with stamping, the new price of these sets makes it incredibly customer friendly. You can get a basic starting package for just under $20! Incredible!

Yesterday I made cards with each of the stamp sets that I have (there's one more that I don't have) and took pictures of each card with it's stamp set. Here they are:




Aren't they adorable?! And so easy to use...AND affordable! What could be better? If you want to check them out for yourself, you can find them on page 81 of the Spring Idea Book (see sidebar at right). All you need to get started is a block - pg 35 in the Idea Book and an ink pad (colors on page 101). For blocks, I recommend a 2 x 2 or a 2.5 x 2.5 (for the paisley stamp). there are even instructions on page 35 for using acrylic stamps, but you can always contact me for personal instruction!
I'm going to have a table at the Frederick and Timonium Totswaps coming up in a couple weeks. Stop by and say hi...I'll have some of these sets available if you'd like to check them out in person.
