Realization


My parents have been in town this week, cleaning out the last few things from their condo. While here, Mom asked me to stamp some images for her, so she can color on her cruise to Rome. Yeah right!! I'll be curious to see how much spare time she has! LOL!! Anyway, while stamping images from a multitude of companies, I realized that not all are created equal. Some company's stamps are so much easier to get a crisp image with. Even with a light touch. I've never really noticed a difference before, maybe because I've never "multi-stamped" this quantity before. Just a thought that was running through my head as I was stamping.

I seriously doubt that your Mom is going to be coloring while traveling to Rome !! LOL !! That is too funny. Love some of those images though and you are right about the differences.

I 'second' that, Otter! You're exactly right! All rubber is not etched equally, and the same applies to clear polymer stamps. I love your pile of stamped images! You're making me want to go 'color'! hahah

Otter - your Mom is SO going to come home with the images looking exactly the same as when she left - LOL! I hope she enjoys her trip!

And you are right - all stamps are not created equal. Yours here look CUTE!

How truly wonderful of you to stamp your mom some images, even though we both know she'll NEVER have time to color probably the first one...Maybe on the plane ride....I'm so loving all the cards you've shared.
