You Get What You Pay For

I thought these stamp and die sets were an amazing deal! I'm still thinking. However, you get what you pay for. The stamp sets were very difficult to remove from the clear acetate sheet. I think it's a clinical term. LoL Sometimes I really struggled to remove the stamp and I thought I might end up breaking the stamp but I removed it. It was on stamp sets with deer and trees. The imp stamp set was easier to remove. After the stamps were removed, they were felt. cheap. that's the only way I can describe it. Again, you get what you pay for. The matrices worked very well. Although this may not be visible in the photo with the matrices. This is really a craftsman problem. I didn't take the time to line up the two stamps properly. I think the star had to be rotated and the package ended too far. As for the gnome set, you will see that the white gnome is not the same as the cube. There is also a female dwarf and none of the dice can be used with her. Your sides are straight. Then you have to use two dice for the gnomes as I wrote here. I tried swapping them out, the stamp on the left with the stamp used on the right and it was clearly not intended for that stamp either. The two dies are for these two dies and you should line them up before you start cutting to ensure you are using the correct die for each die. I only tested stamps and stamps if you are not satisfied with it due to the quick return of the purchase. In general I am satisfied with the purchase. Again, this is a lot as long as none of the other brands breaks. I know now the stamps I removed to check the stamps will not break. I'll check out other brands when I'm ready to use them. Definitely I will be able to use the stamps and stamps with other sets if the rest of the stamps break. I couldn't give five stars because the stamps were removed from the acetate sheet. and also. Stamps appear cheap after you use them. But they worked. They did what a craftsman would expect of them. Oh, also, I originally used the Memento ink pad in a black tuxedo and it didn't give me a clear picture. I switched to the Fun Stampers Journey True Color Fusion Ink Pad in Black Licorice. It gave me a clean look. So you may need to play around with the ink pad you use for your stamps. I hope this helps you decide if you want to buy the $13.99 three stamp sets. I paid for that. There was also a 5% coupon. So successful creativity!
