You probably have already seen this...

But I haven't and I keep walking by this stamp in Michael's stamping aisle not knowing what the heck I can do with USA stamp so never bothered buying it. Yesterday I walked thru the aisle again and saw this stamp again and a light bulb came on in my head thinking I could use this to send cards to out of state family and friends. Can be a happy birthday or thinking of you or missing you or whatever! I haven't come up with a card yet but it's in the works! The image is a stamped USA and I used smorgasborder set to stamp tiny hearts. I'm gonna color the states (only ones that applies like CA to whatever state I am sending the card to) with watercolor wonder crayon with blender pen and then cover with stickles for sparkly look.

Ohhh I want that stamp. that would make a neat little thing to give to kids for car trips. They can color all the states they drive through or to color or mark states they visited. And I like your card idea too. Now I have to go to Micheal's to find one!

I can also see a number of possibilities. I don't know how big the stamp is, but could it be stamped plain, then enlarged on copy machine to a size better for kids to color? Not stamping, I know, but that would be a cute booklet for them to make as a souvenir.

That's such a cute idea!

I think you could stamp two images and do some fun 3D stuff with dimensionals or pop up dots...also with "spot lighting" technique. ;)

Cute stamp! Definite possibilities for using it. Although, being here in the North East it might make my coloring a little more difficult... :-D
