When I got that big wonderful box of Martha goodies a while back there was a fun stamping kit included.
It comes with a circle holder, two embellishment rings, the alphabet and some phrases. I had some gifts for my mom and though it would be fun to try the kit out just before leaving to go see her.
I was in a bit of a hurry and didn’t have time to play around with different cards and papers and didn’t quite master the art of stamping as you can see but I love it. Will so come in handy before Christmas!
Perhaps you should show how easy for a teen to use/ Then after he makes a few for you he can add the tags to gifts to you. You desrve it!

Actually Wille's already the best gift giver and his wrapping is pretty cute too :)

Gotta love Martha! Neat gadget. I like that "not perfect" quality of the stamp. Makes it look vintage.

Simple and just adorable wrapping and stamping. You Mum is lucky to get such a beatiful present.

The color combination (grey and yellow and white) looks really nice. I was wondering if you could change the twirly border to something else on this kit.

You can skip the swirls and just do the inner circle or vice versa or skip them altogether. No other circles are included though.

Cute! Are the little letters hard to handle? I like the registration marks on the stamping block so text can be aligned.

They were surprisingly easy to handle and I was equally surprised at how straight the text came out. I've used similar letter stamps in the past but the letters always ended up going up and down.

I read the title as tramp stamp, and could not imagine you with one of those tattoos!

Haha, no I'm not into those :).
