It's in the new catalog on p.106 and it's called 'happiness is a journey'. I think it will be great for masculine birthdays and thank yous. So easy to stamp too, no coloring needed. I cannot wait to get my hands on it.
I've noticed only a small number of cards in the gallery so far, so I'm thinking not too many people are lovin' it like I am.
:mrgreen: I love the train set. A little partial since my husband is a railroad man. Great for males and if nothing else look at the saying lady's that alone can be used for so many types of cards and scrapbook pages!
I ordered this set...all the men in my life love trains so I think this will be perfect for masculine cards!!!! I'm hoping to see more samples in the gallery soon!!!

I love this train set. I used to covet one in the TAC catalog, but it had a holly leaf & berry & I think was meant for Christmas. This one in the new catty is marvelous. I love all the stamps on both those pages.

I love the train set, it is nice to have another choice for a manly man card. I don't know I wouldn't mind receiving a card with that train on it myself. It kind of brings back memories of my youth, hearing the train go by!
I'm neutral. I like the idea of a train set and masculine sets in general. DH is a train nut (and I work for a train magazine) and we both agreed that while we liked the concept, we wished the set would have had something other than a late 1800s type steam locomotive. Something a little more modern, even 1930s, would have been nicer.
Probably more technical information than you wanted to know. . .
I really liked it when I saw it in the catalog. I have so many stamp sets I want - something like 17 w/o counting the train...that I don't know that I'll ever get to it.No one I know is really "in" to trains so I'm getting stuff higher on my list first but yes, I do like the set alot, especially the style of it.

I really love it too! I have it already and I will be making thank-you notes for those who attended my Dad's 90th birthday party this past weekend. I have the lighthouse set also and had so much fun using that one with the baby wipe technique. I'd like to try embossing and brayering with this one. Great style and it looks Gorgeous stamped . Glad to know there are other fans and I look forward to seeing samples in the gallery too ~ lots of potential with this set!
And if I ever get into scrapbooking, we have tons of photos of the steam locomotive that passes through our town a couple of times a year ~ very exciting to hear that whistle blow! Last time we were a little too close - my daughter and I got dusted with soot and felt the steam. It was quite the sight.
Anyone else LOVE the new train stamp
