Craft Stamps

Craft stamps are a wonderful tool for creating designs and patterns for your hobby.
With the many styles and kits available a simple rubber stamp can be your best friend.

Craft stamps are not only easy to use, they can be an inexpensive creative tool, and they can be used over and over. What an added benefit. Definitely money well spent when you purchase these handy tools for your supply bin.
Most craft stamps are made of rubber, which makes them very durable. As long as you keep them clean they will give you years of creative use. Craft stamps also come in foam or a few other materials, some also come in a pen or marker shape.
Craft stamps are available individually in too many designs to list.   Some are available in sets, for example numbers and letters. Some craft stamps are packaged in kits with several pieces  pertaining to the same theme.
These kits can also include some type of inking system. If you can find one of these kits that match your project they can be a great value. You need to determine if the kit has more than one use in the future, you may be better off purchasing individual pieces you can get many uses out of.

Craft stamps also come in many different sizes. If you purchase one design in two sizes you can produce great graphic effects by layering them in different colors.
If your wondering what all the fuss is about with craft stamps here are some ideas. Using craft stamps on your borders will give them a more personal touch and you can control the pattern and size. It saves time and joint pain using one of these handy tools versus cutting something out and then pasting multiples of the same style. Craft stamps can be used to make your own custom background paper. This also is a great way to save money, using basic solid papers instead of buying specialty sheets. You also have the ability to customize your colors to fit your theme. There are many ink colors available so you can mix or layer the colors for different effects.
Craft stamps can also be used for raised letter embossing. Using glue instead of ink, then sprinkling embossing powder or glitters can really make a page stand out.
