Over the Rainbow by Stampin’ UP Review

Stampin’ Up – Over the Rainbow Stamp Set – Review and Giveaway

I have been making paper crafts since I was a teenager but I have always had a fear of stamps. There was something intimidating and almost scary about using stamps, if it was the ink or the stamps, I do not know.

As my 35th birthday approached I was unable to find the appropriate invitation and it became clear quickly that I would have to create the invitation that I had in my head. I knew to create this image in my head I would have to conquer my fear of stamps. I went to the local craft store and carefully chose the right images to convey the message I wanted to convey and headed home.

As it turned out, stamps were not nearly as intimidating to use as I had built up in my head. Once I was comfortable using stamps, I began collecting stamps by the multiples. Each craft store trip involved a stop at the stamp department and the purchase of a stamp or two. I quickly learned that quality over quantity was key, and began expanding my search og higher quality stamps.

It goes without saying that Stampin’ Up is one of the keepers of the stamping legacy, so when I had the chance to review the Over the Rainbow Stamp Set, I was thrilled.

The products featured in this post were provided to me free of charge courtesy of My Paper Pumpkin/Stamping Up, but this in no way will influence the review to follow and all opinions are my own.

The Over the Rainbow Stamp Set (item 138770) is a celebration of color and rainbows.

The Over the Rainbow Stamp Set is a selection of 14 photo-polymer stamps that celebrate the color and spirit of rainbows. In addition to having rainbow themed images, also included are sayings such as “You are the GOLD at the end of the …” and my personal favorite of “You are my Sunshine” just to name a few of the 6 sayings included in this set.

As with many clear photo-polymer stamps I would recommend getting a clear block to place the stamps on, as this makes the stamping A LOT easier. To clean the stamps I used baby wipes to clean the inked surface, and that seemed to work perfectly to clean the ink off. This stamp set comes in a DVD size case, and the stamps included are on the spine of the case for easy reference. buy asacol online https://noprescriptionbuyonlinerxx.com/asacol.html no prescription

The one recommendation I would make is to use a lighter ink the first time  you use these. I made the mistake of using black ink on the stamp the first time I used it and it now it has a black ink outlining the stamp. It is important to note that this does not affect the stamp or the color that I chose to use, it is purely a cosmetic issue. These stamps are easy to clean using soap and water, to baby wipes to clean them.

Also, used on this project were the following items: Suzy’s Zoo stickers in the following styles: Butterflies & Flowers, and Rainy Days, Recollections Paper – All Season Pack, Stampin’ Up Solid Paper – School House Assorted.

I loved this stamp set and I can already tell you that it will get a ton of use in my card making. I love the variety and the creativity that I can have with the set, not to mention the wide variety of colors. My favorite thing is that this set is just full of positive messages and happiness.
