INTRODUCING STAMP SETS GONE SINGLE!




If you were one of the 8,698 Likes on our recent Facebook post about the "theoretical" idea of offering single stamps from sets, you'll be happy to learn that we're going to try it out and see how it goes! (And even if you didn't see the Facebook buzz you're still allowed to like the idea, of course.) We're excited to offer you the chance to buy single pieces from these greetings stamp sets: Word Play, Perfectly Penned, and Seasonal Sayings. 

The offer will last until January 2, 2013.  


Note that these single stamps will only be offered in clear-mount, they'll come without a block, and they'll be packaged in cello bags versus the plastic cases you're used to. Also, since this is a pilot program, Spanish and French stamp sets are not included in this offer. We're keeping things sweet and simple! 

Here are the stamps available from the Perfectly Penned stamp set:

Today, I'm providing a tutorial on making a pelican.  I used Whisper White, Daffodil Delight and Basic Black card stock and sponged the white with Sahara Sand ink.  

Punches used:  Extra-Large Oval, Large Oval, Owl Builder (medium eyes), Word Window and Modern Label, Curly Label (shown later).


Cut the Daffodil XL Oval punch as shown - this will make the beak.  Cut off a piece from each long side of both Modern Label punches to make the legs.
For the head, take a Large Oval punch, mark a small black dot on the left side of the top of the oval as shown.  Make sure the dot is right on the edge.  
Use the top of the Curly Label punch to just punch out the black dot.  
See how the top left side has a little punched out?  Then just trim off the right third of the oval so it won't show past the beak.  
Glue the legs behind the body (XL Oval Punch), then use a Stampin' Dimensional to pop up the wing.  Glue Word Window punch behind body and head for the neck.  
Add eyes and beak.  Use a white gel pen to give him some eyeballs.  Isn't he cute?
