Talking Just discovered punch has a stamp

I have owned a Martha Stewart Christmas stocking punch for years. Used it today for my Christmas cards and colored the stockings to make them cuter. As I’m putting the punch away I noticed the bump part, that I assumed was where the mechanism was, seemed to come apart. Hmmm, is this to fix it if it sticks? I pry it open and discover there are 3 stamps in there!!! This punch came with stamps! I had no idea. 🤦🏼‍♀️ I could have had super cute stockings.

Has this happened to anyone else?

What a happy surprise, or a frustration (depends on how long you've had this punch without realizing it had hidden stamps, haha!). I only wish my Martha Stewart punches had hidden compartments, but I doubt it. Hmmm, maybe I need to go check them all. If not stamps, perhaps they hold chocolate?

I had one of those once! Not the stocking, but something else... a butterfly maybe? I no longer have the punch, but I remember I actually DID buy it because it was a cool punch + stamps combo in one package. Yay for you discovering a happy surprise bonus!

Gosh, I had better check my punches. I still have all my MS punches so I might get a lovely surprise.

And now I have to resist checking all of my punches, in hope of finding hidden stamps, haha! Oh well.

Craftyteaspoon - I saw your card with the stockings, but what about the stamps? You can’t just tease us with the info and not show us.

What an early Christmas gift! I hope to find one too in few punches that I've kept here.

I have the MS bird punch with the 3 stamps.  They were pretty nifty at the time!
