 Hey guys! We are here to look at my new stamp sets. I came out with four new stamp sets. They just came in this week. The first of the orders have already gone out and the birds are already sold out in the first batch of inventory but more is on the way so you can continue to pre-order them. The link for my Etsy shops in the description below. The birds are by far the most popular so far. The people who pre-order get pulled first from the inventory when it comes in before anything else. So if you order ahead of time then basically I'm going to hold one for you out of the next batch. Alright, so these are my sample sets. I haven't even unwrapped them yet and this time I asked her to send me my samples clean-mounted. Now when you get them they will be unmounted. Red rubber. Get all these open. So this is the material that my sets come on. This is like a cardstock. It's got a slick plastic back so the stamps will stick to the back but when you get your sets they will come unmounted. I'll get a set to show you. There's a set of the girls. So they come unmounted red rubber so you're going to need a sheet of easy-mount foam to turn them into a clean-mount stamp. So you stick the whole sheet of red rubber to a sheet of the foam and then you cut the stamps out. This is the most economical way for you to get all of these different designs. You get the whole set when you buy the stamps and you'll get a picture in the front on just plain printer paper that shows you what all the designs are. I recommend laminating this and once you get all your stamps mounted and cut out then you can use that laminated picture to stick your stamps to the back of like how these are on here. Yeah and I don't just trust that this is going to stick like this. I store my stamps in a binder so I always put them into a plastic sleeve in the binder or if you store them in a bin or a drawer I do still, even though this sticks pretty good, I recommend putting this in a sleeve. You could use the bag it comes in just cut the sticky part off and I might do that. I haven't decided yet. I literally just saw me open them. They came late yesterday. Alright so let's play with them shall we. I have some tags and things to make for Happy Mail. I have a couple different things I want to do so we might as well do it on camera. Now the company that helps me manufacture the stamps, Rubber Moon Stamps and they sell some of their own stamps online so you can go to Google Rubber Moon Stamps. I'll try to remember to put a link in the description below and go to their website and support them. Anyway they helped me and they took some of my birds and they took three of my little birds and they made a little birdie border. Isn't that cute? So let's stamp the birdie border. I've been wanting to stamp the birdie border since I saw it in the preview. How cute is that? Can you just imagine that on a journal page? That is so cute. Alright you get a word on each one of the stamp sets. Let's see. Let's do this one and then let's do the words that are on here. I think that'll work. Let's see if that'll fit on the tag. So the nice thing about having them cling mounted, if they're, this bird's a little big. If you have these words is that you can position them to see if they're going to fit and if I was using bigger tags it would be better. These tags are really little. It'd be easier. This is a bigger tag. Let's use this one. Yeah I can see them. I can put whatever kind of bird I want on there. Put a couple birds. Let's see. So you can rearrange the stamps until they fit on your, whatever it is that you're stamping. Okay I'm just like going overboard here with the birds. They're just too cute. I think they'll be close enough. We'll try it. What's the worst that could happen? So I have quotes already rearranged and then some of the sets have separate words. I'll show you. So there you go. Isn't that cute? I love that. My quote's a little crooked but that's me not the stamp. That's me. User error. I don't know what to say. User error. Okay so we'll put all these back on here. So we also have these ones here that are inspired by all the planner activities and our journaling things I've been doing for the past year or so really inspired this particular set of stamps. Now this set of stamps has individual words instead of a quote which is nice so you can pick one word or I put enough words on here this way. There's a couple of really nice positive affirmation words but there also is enough words on here that you could arrange. You are inspired. You are artistic. You are beautiful. You could really customize kind of your own quote. Now each set has different words in it. That was intentional so if you want to you can use words from each one of the sets and mix them up. Some of these doodles on this particular set weren't directly inspired by some of my daily doodles that I've done. Isn't that cool? I love that. Including the arrows. I did some of these daily doodles and I went you know that would be a nice stamp because I wasn't going to come out with four stamp sets all at the same time. Like who does that? I don't know. That's crazy. Now I'm using archival ink so you definitely could stamp these and then let them dry and then come back with markers or crayons or watercolor paints or something and color them in. And these words are in my writing. That's actually my writing. So there's that one and then we have we'll do this one last. We have some of my doodle girls and the doodle girls have a lot of words on them. Let's put one of the girls on a tag and I don't do these kind of things on the computer. I actually hand draw them on paper and then I scan that in to my computer and email that copy of that drawing to the company that helps me rubber moon. Love it. And they format it and do all the fancy computer gizmos stuff but this is they don't change the images too much. See there are some words that are cursive and some that are printed trying to decide I want to do a quote. Let's do this one. I'm wanting to do that one. I don't know why I'm fighting with myself. So let's just do that on a tag. So this is some of the cursive and again this is my real writing. It's not like a computer font or anything. That's really me. And I'm going to take a stamp from this other set. This one. I'm going to do this in this round one. It kind of reminds me of a slice of orange. That's nice. It's fun to just take your stamps out every once in a while and just play with them and just make some tags, stamp some happy mail, something like that. So these are great. So you have all these different words and then two doodle girls here. And then the last one that we have has three words on it and then it has some of these doodle shapes that you would see that probably if you've seen my other two first two sets of stamps they're reminiscent of those. And these are more pieces and parts. There's a couple of images here that could be used as journal borders. And then the rest of these are intended to be stems and leaves or petals so that you could sort of do a build your own flower thing which is fun. Again that tag is small so let's get a bigger one and let's build a flower. You get a stem. I'm going to use this petal. I'm going to stay black. I'm going to stay black for right now. I'm just playing. Now these stamps are pretty detailed and of course you could overlap the images on top of one another if you want. And that would work if you're using different colors of ink. But if you're just using one color you probably want to leave some spaces. Otherwise the design's going to get too muddy. You know I'm going to just eyeball it because that's what I do right. So I mean you can just and you can then go in and take maybe another shape. I want to do another shape. I don't think I do. I think I want to stay with this one. And you might even want to put the center on first and then come in and add the petals. I don't know. It would be really fun to do this in different colors. I like that. That's messy. What do you get? That's what you get from a $1.50 stamp pad. I would probably do that in a darker color but again I'm just playing so it's not a big deal. So I have some other ideas to use these stamps on and that will be coming soon but in the meantime if you're thinking about doing something fun for Happy Mail think about just playing with your stamps and some ink on some tags. These are a great insert into any journal page pocket or like I said Happy Mail and you could write a nice note on the back. If you do it in archival ink then you can paint, color, draw or whatever on top of the stamp or stays on ink. If you want to buy any of my stamp sets or for sale at my Etsy shop the link's in the description below. I have six different sets of stamps if you're going to collect all of them and I have more birds coming in never fear. So you can go ahead and order them in all confidence and I will let you know when they'll be in. That's it for today. Don't forget the most important thing. Go out and do something nice for yourself because you deserve it and I'll see you later.
