Hi,
Has anyone seen these stamps? wow, got my first set today and they're fantastic, I got the one called Berries and Buds wreath. They're so easy to use though and look so pretty, I'm just going to have to decide what to use them on.
I have seen their ads in the stamping magazines and have checked out their website, but have not tried them yet. Be sure to post some pictures of your new creations.
I've got about 10 sets of those - they are cute! I especially love Winter Night Sky, Embellished Holiday Wreath, Fall Mum Border, and Starfish and Shells
I've got several sets, and they are so easy to use. I was at the Allentown, PA Heirloom convention this weekend, and saw a Live demo. I bought a new set that has a tiny "onesie" and a baby bootie, along with flowers and leaves. Each set is unique, and no stamp is duplicated in another set. You can mix and match. I volunteer at our local senior center, and my friends there love them. They are so easy to hold, and to use, they are on Pegs, not square blocks. No coloring in, you use them on inkpads.

Ditto what every one else has said. I've used them on sympathy and anniversary cards and also used it to trim around the edges of a remembrance verse I framed and gave to my SIL when her mom passed away.
They are easy and fun to use.
Not only are they easy and fun to use, but if you sign up for their monthly newsletter,they let you know of new sets and individual stamps. They usually put a set on sale every month and give you some beautiful examples, they're addictive
Yes , be sure to check out the monthly special, posted the 1st of every month. Plus.... their shipping is actual cost....I ordered one set and a few single stick stamps and the shipping was something like $1.35, had them within a few days also. Love them! Linda
That's exactly right, Carol Lee. The come in sets of 6 to 10 stamps mounted on wooden dowels. Prices vary according to the number of stamps in the set. Each set includes instructions and suggested colors. They are very, very easy to use! Check out their website if you need more enabling! http://www.rubberstamptapestry.com
It's so weird. I went to a rubber stamp store in Peoria, IL and they had those stamps there. I didn't get any though they were between $7 and $11 because I had so much other stuff in my basket. I got a "CD case" with 24 stamps in it...the kind you stick on clear blocks. And I got a 12 inch by 2 inch clear acrylic block for $4. Stamp pads, embellishments.....oh my wallet :O
IMHO they are beautiful sets. I placed a few on my Wish List, which keeps getting longer and longer and longer. CRBT.

A hint for using them and getting good results. I use a template and draw two light pencils lines, about 1/2" apart. You can use an oval, circle, or heart. I try to do the leaves just a little beyond the outside line, and a little inside the inner line. Then, I do the flowers, and try to keep them mostly inside the two lines. They suggest you stamp like the hands of a clock, 12, 3, 6, and 9. Then fill in the next image between those. I find it relaxing.

these are beautiful sets! Wish there was a store near me to see them in person... Oh, well, I should just order a set or two and try them out! Thanks for sharing...
I do what Mary Eileen does and it works like a charm!
I take my CM cutting shapes and use a pencil to very lightly trace the inner and outer edge of the shape (usually a circle or oval). Doing it this way I get a perfectly shaped wreath every time. After stamping, I lightly erase the pencil line.
Usually I can resist ordering stamps online. I couldn't tonight and it's all your fault. Just placed an order. I have a feeling I'll be ordering more in the future.
