Amy says, "I often forget how much I love stamps unless I have them out in front of me. The Zing! was calling my name too - absolutely love the way it turned out on the kraft paper. Tip: When using a heat tool, I'd recommend not adhering your photos until the end. I sort of melted my pictures just slightly.!

Poki says, "Stamps are often appear on my layouts. I use stamps to make titles or write messages. On these projects I used stamps to make embellishments. I stamped 'Lovely' with brown ink on a Bits tag. I use a zig-zag stamp under the ribbon. I used my favorite floral paper as a mat board. I made circles with a sewing machine and I put a lot of paper and many stickers on it. The softly-colored paper of Peachy Keen goes with the sun-soaked photos perfectly. I stamped to make the title on my card. I think that using stamps is easy and very convenient to make a lot of cards at a time."
