Hey crafters!
It’s Kelly here with a fun way to get more from your stamps!
Before we get started I just wanted to remind you about our current challenge. Topsy Turvy: Using a sentiment as something other than a sentiment. Talk about possibilities!
and you could win a gift card to Simon Says Stamp. How awesome is that?
Okay let’s get into it shall we?
All of us crafters spend our hard earned dough buying the things we love, STAMPS! But what if you have stamps you aren’t utilizing? We all have stamps that are stained with ink and love from multiple uses. These stamps have hundreds of cards under their belts.
We all also have those stamps that are perfectly clean. These poor stamps have never known the sweet love of a juicy inkpad, am I right?!
Today I’m going to help you fix that, for a few little stamps.
Here’s our first card

Brilliant post, Kelly! I love how you made the stamps WORK for you… I wouldn't think to use those tiny leaves on their own, but good grief, just draw a branch and there you go! Sometimes I forget the obvious. LOL Thanks for the great inspiration! 🙂

Cute cards, Kelly! What a great idea! I'm so impressed at how well you stamped these tiny little images with perfect placement! Awesome job! 🙂
Oh what adorable cards with a "retro" stamp set, LOL!! I think I have one set older than that – I use all the time! FAB post, Kelly!!
Beautiful samples of how the "little guys" can pack a punch! Thanks for sharing! Love ALL of the cards, Kelly!
I have lots of stamps that I can look at in different ways to see what's not so obvious! All these cards are adorable and you didn't have to go buy new stamps to create them! Thanks for a great suggestion and when you think about it, many Hero Arts stamps are perfect for this!!!

Very inspiring post!! I have tons of these mini stamps and I've always felt a little bit guilty about not utilizing them 🙂
I love these cards, Kelly! Thanks for the inspiration and calling our attention to those little unused gems of stamps!!
This was a really great tutorial! I very often forget fabulous little stamps!
