Hands up if you own stamps that have never been used in any way. Even if it’s just one stamp in a set. I’m guessing there are very few of us out there who have honestly put ink to every single stamp we own – especially if we count the letters of the alphabet! And interestingly enough, that’s what the new series A to Z of Stamping aims to do – encourage you to put those stamps to use with a variety of projects and techniques highlighted each day… one day for each letter of the alphabet.

I drew the letter A out of the hat, so I had to be brave and go first of all the Garden Girls. I made two projects – a card and a scrapbook page – with a focus on layering stamps by American Crafts. Simple, quick and easy but still definitely homemade. Other projects for A included alcohol inks and art journals, with plenty of examples and a video to demonstrate. Then the next day showcased stamps from BasicGrey, buttons and background stamps. Today we’re up to C for Copic markers, Colorbox and charms. And so forth to come throughout the alphabet!
Each day also includes a themed sale and a challenge with a prize winner. Just a bit of bonus, that.
You can find the daily updates for the A to Z of Stamping here throughout the next twenty-three or days or so!
Now… what stamp have you not used? Grab it and get it inky, won’t you?
