Ready, Set, Go!

Hey Stampers,

Today is the big day!  Today I am posting the first set of stamps I will be using.  Actually, the first eight sets.  I decided to start us off with a bang. :)  Next week I will begin posting the projects I made with theses stamps.  For these stamps I am focusing on cards.  Some of these stamps I just purchased, some are older....but I have never used any of them before.

I must admit that taking pictures of clear stamps is a bit of a challenge.  I am sure I will improve as time goes on.  When I can, I will use packaging information for my photo.  Unfortunately, I don't have it for many of my older stamps.  I am sure in a few months I will be a pro at this. :)  I will also add the company name when I know it.  So, if a stamp set is not labeled, that means I don't know who the company is or I cannot confirm it.

You will also see some labels and markings on my stamp sets.  This has to do with how I organize my stamps.  I will be talking more about my system in the FREE class Use Every Stamp 2013.  Class begins next week on our site and I really hope you decide to join us. 








I am sooooooo excited to get started.  Next week I will be posting one or two cards each day.  But only next week, I could never keep up that schedule. :)  Starting on January 21st I will post what stamps I will be working with each Monday.  Each Friday I will post my finished projects. 

Are you ready for the challenge?  Leave a comment and tell me what stamps you will be working with.

See you in the classroom!

  2. I'm not sure what I'm going to work on. I have a couple year-long projects that I can incorporate stamps into. We'll see what the week brings. :)

  3. I'm not sure what stamps I'll be using yet...I do know I want to make some "hello" and "smile" type cards for when I do ATC swaps, I like to have a card to send them in. I have several of the sets that you've listed above and I have actually even used some of them!

  5. I have a couple of male type stamp sets which have never been used so i'll make a start with them. I tend to always make cards for women and forget the poor men have birthdays too!

  9. My goal is to use stamps that have not been inked up yet! Believe me when I say that I have quite a few of those. Looking forward to the class.

  10. I'm almost embarrassed to say I have a basket (and it isn't little lol) full of new stamps I haven't used. I'm going to work my way through it.

  11. I have so many stamps that have not been used I think I will just pick a box and start.
