Review on Tulip Clear Stamp and Die Sets with Silicone, Floral Dies and Rubber Stamps for Scrapbooking, Card Making, Decoration, DIY Paper Craft, and Album Supplies by Heather Shaw

I finally broke down and bought a Big Shot cutting machine and use it almost all the time. I still have a lot to learn and one of the first things I learned is that silicone stamps and stamp sets are usually very expensive. I was very happy to find that this set is more than cheap and works almost as well as the stamps and stamp sets of the well-known brands. The quality isn't the same, but it's nothing I can't work with. The price is much lower than similar sets so it was worth a try. Sizzix landed a precise punch. They have a crest around the carved tulips and leaves. When I stamped them with silicone stamps, it was no longer noticeable. So it is no problem for me to use this set. The die is carbon steel and cuts cleanly with no jagged edges or areas that haven't cut all the way through. It just leaves a crest in the whole shape. Silicone stamps are ideal for stamping. And where the comb goes around the neckline, the contour on the stamps closes it. Love the picture of how they used this set of tulips. I got stuck in the routine of using the same colors or the same layout and showing three completely different cards, and that sparked my creativity. Since the quality meets my requirements, ie good cut and stamp, I will consider buying more of these sets.
